Publisher's Synopsis
People often say: "I wish I had the time to write a book", "I wish I could take six months off to write", or "I don't have the discipline". Many people want to write and have ideas they would like to express, but are intimidated by the process, by thinking that it is too hard or that they don't have the requisite talent, or think they don't have enough time to fit writing into their already packed schedule. If you would like to write a book but don't know how to start, are bewildered about the specifics or don't even know if you should contemplate writing, this book is for you. I wrote this workbook to help you get from idea to complete manuscript. Maybe in the past you have wanted to write but didn't know how, so you put that idea aside. Maybe you started but had several false starts. Whatever the reason, if you have always wanted to write a book, but didn't think that you could do it, or didn't know how to go about it, this book will help you get from the blank page to a finished book. In this book, I cover the basics of writing a book, whether it is non-fiction or a novel, from getting the initial idea, to writing a first draft all the way to a finished book. I also cover how to find time to write, dealing with writer's block and editing. I want to show you how to finally finish writing your book. To show you that you can take your dream from "I wish" to "I did".
