How Do You Write A Book? Step 1: Start With An Idea
Good morning gorgeous humans,
How are you this morning? Are you feeling overwhelmed by your own dream of writing a book? I was there once. You’re new and you’re not sure how to write a book because you’ve never done it before. Well, if you already have an idea then I have good news for you. The hardest part is over. The idea is the most important part. Without an idea there is no book at all.
Now, I’m sure you’re here because you’ve tried doing some research and you’ve seen so many things that tell you how to be a writer in so many steps or how to write a book properly. Take a deep breath with me. If you have an idea and want to write a book then trust me when I say there is no wrong way. And there is no wrong way to be a writer. Every writer is different and does something different that works for them. It may be a ritual or a certain chair they sit in or maybe they read before they write anything. Some drinks coffee when they write, others drink tea, while some only drink water and nothing else.
Now, forget everything you’ve been told or have read about being a writer and writing a book. There are no perfect ideas that are only good and others that can never be used in a story because they are and. People write for all sorts of reasons and write about all sorts of things for different reasons. If it’s your idea and you want to write about it then it’s a good idea and you can wrote about it.
None of those things matter right now.
All you need to begin writing is an idea and a handful of words you know the meanings of and maybe a character or two.
Don’t listen to anyone else. Because they don’t know how to write like only you can. You’re just starting out so you don’t have to stress over any of the technical stuff just yet. You have an idea, that is your starting point. That is where every writer begins their writing journey.
You’ve already begun.
Now, don’t let anyone talk you down. Push through the bad talk. You’re going to prove them wrong.
Now, write that idea down so you don’t forget it. You’re going to need it for the next super easy, simple step. This is how you write a book, especially if you’re just starting out. Welcome, let’s grow together and learn together.
I’ll see you very soon with my next step. Lots of love! Happy reading a writing. Until next time.
