Are you dreaming of writing your own book? This is not so difficult to do. But many authors are stopped by many questions: where to start, how to finish, whether it will be interesting, how to come up with a plot … So, where to start writing a book?
Before you start writing a book directly, you have to come up with it in your head. Think about what you want to tell people about. If you have several different ideas in your head, write them down on a piece of paper and analyze. You can arrange testing of your ideas with the help of friends and acquaintances. Ask them what they would be more interested in reading or learning about.
If you like multiple ideas at once, it's worth splitting them up into different books. Remember that a book about everything is essentially a book about nothing.
When you've settled on the best idea, work it out. This means that you have to think over the approximate structure of the book, its outline. In many respects, the success of the future book depends on the logic of the narration.
It is worth taking the time to study books on the topic you intend to write about. Not only will you add to your knowledge base, but you will also be able to take a more critical look at your ideas. Perhaps you will make some adjustments to the book that has not yet begun. Agree, making changes in an already written book is much more difficult.
Once you realize that you are completely satisfied with the plan for your book, sit down to write. Do not delay this moment for a long time. Otherwise, the book runs the risk of being just your idea.
If you started writing, then do it regularly. Don't wait several months for inspiration to come to you. Writing any book is hard, regular work. It takes a lot of time and effort.
When you write, don't criticize yourself. Write the way it goes in your head.
Did you write everything you wanted? Now is the time to re-read everything you've created and edit. It is worth waiting for a while after writing the book, otherwise you risk missing basic mistakes. After a week, you will look at your work more detached. This will help you see the flaws and mistakes in your manuscript.
