Ep 046: How to make sure you're writing the right book
So you’re ready to write a book, are you? You know what you’re going to write about and how many words you want it to be, so that’s all you need to know. Right?
Don’t. You. Wish.
One of the biggest mistakes I see people make is not taking the time — before they write their first word — to make sure it’s the right book. And I know you may be thinking I’ve lost my mind because come on, now...there is no such thing as a wrong book.
Which is, I’m afraid, bollocks.
So how do you make sure you don’t go down the wrong path before you even get started?
Well, there are a few ways to tell if your book is the one you should write. You’ve got to take the time to think about what solutions you have for your readers, but you’ve got to take a bit of yourself into consideration too, believe it or not.
Because of that, it’s totally worth the time to drill down a bit more, because it can help you be sure you’re heading in the right direction.
On this episode of The AUTHORITY Show, I’ll dive into the 3 main questions you need to ask yourself before you ever sit down to start writing.
They just might save you from getting halfway done — or even years down the road — and realizing it wasn’t the book you’re supposed to write.
So sit back and enjoy the show. When you’re done, come find me on Instagram @jessicakillingley and let me know what your biggest takeaways are. And if this episode has inspired you to write a different book than planned, I’d love to know what the right one is.
Here are the highlights:
{4:35} What you think you know before you write your book
{5:50} The easy book to write can still be the wrong book to write
{6:54} The length of your book is not a selling point
{8:16} Solving specific problems for your readers
{8:52) The 3 focusses you need to nail your bestselling book idea
