Or however that saying goes.<\/p>\n<p>How do we go about discovering our book inside?<\/p>\n<p>The answer is surprisingly simple, but not easy.<\/p>\n<p>You write. Yes, write. Because writing begets writing.<\/p>\n<p>It\u2019s that simple. I do not mean to belittle the task. Writing a book is quite a large project that takes time. I know. I\u2019m on my fourth novel.<\/p>\n<p>Let\u2019s begin at the beginning. Set your timer for 20 minutes. This timed writing session will be to focus on your book writing intention.<\/p>\n<h2>20 Minute Timed Writing: Start!<\/h2>\n<p>Write your intention. Yes, write that you want to write a book but you don\u2019t know what that book is. So write what this book would be about if you could write about anything at all. Be wild. Be crazy. Be inventive. Give yourself permission to say the daring thing.<\/p>\n<p>Next, flesh out your book idea. Write the main points or chapters. If you don\u2019t know, that\u2019s okay. Make it up. Just write the first idea that comes to you. Give yourself permission to express what\u2019s within, what wants to come out. You can do it!<\/p>\n<p>If one idea doesn\u2019t flesh out that well, choose another idea. Choose any other idea that occurs to you and follow that thread. What\u2019s that book about? Write the main ideas, the shape of the book, the feel of it. Be adventurous. Be bold. Go further than you have gone before.<\/p>\n<p>If you\u2019re inclined, and you have the time, write who this book is for \u2013 who is your audience? (and be as specific as you can), and also why you want to write this book. And why you are the right author for book. Yes, why are you the perfect person for this idea?<\/p>\n<p>Okay, pencils down!<\/p>\n<h2>Read Aloud<\/h2>\n<p>Review your writing. Read it aloud for the room and your ears to hear. Notice. Listen to yourself. Breathe. It\u2019s okay. You have survived the first step to writing your book. You are on your way!<\/p>\n<p><em>c. 2009 Beth Barany<\/em><br \/>\nWho Beth Barany helps are aspiring authors who have the problem of wanting to write their books but aren\u2019t writing.
