Today I will tell you about the one dream all bloggers have .Writing a book.I want to write books too.Not one many.Main problem is starting. Plus I want to learn the steps .Just like I learnt blogging ,I want to know the inside and outside of writing a book.
- Not being ready and praying.
- Getting ready and praying
Blog to Book by P.R.Newton is useful if you have never researched self publishing.
But it’s not a step by step guide.Many people will tell you to take a bunch of your old posts and publish them on Kindle.But did you know that’s not allowed by Amazon.
That is ,you can’t have more than 10% of your book available for free anywhere. But your blog can be a golden tool to find the topic which your audience likes.
-
It can build your brand.
-
It can bring in a whole new audience for your writings.
-
It can be a value-added feature for your followers.
- A great income stream
Pros of the book :
- Gives you quick tips to get started with put the overwhelm
- An honest reality check about self publishing.
- Useful tips for writers who want to DIY the process.
- Amazon hacks to help.
- Motivational reading if you have been dilly dallying writing the first book (like me)
Cons
- Like everything much of it is not new .
- You may have read it before.
- The book is also sadly deficient in details needed to pin point a winning topic (maybe that’s still not known
How will you find a topic to write about ?

What an insightful post. So essentially we can’t publish the AtoZ challenge posts if we want to is it? Or we can self publish? How does it work Amrita…
Yes Natasha you can still self publish but not an amazon .
Indeed insightful Amrita, thanks for sharing 🙂 #FutureGoals #PenABook #Fiction
Writing and getting my book published is a dream I want to accomplish at any cost since I was 15 years old. 🙂 I’ll keep your tips in mind.
I love the idea. Getting it published worries me.
It’s a journey no doubt
Here in Manila, some of IT bloggers already have their own book, and its a good way to monetize and solidify their brand.
So far I’ve heard positive feedback about their books.
Yes it’s a good idea to have a book.
I love the tips! I plan on writing books in the future. I know reading is super important.

I am not at this point of wanting to write my own book if I ever will be. I do however find this post very helpful as my daughter loves to write and would love to have her own book! So some of your tips are very helpful for her. She has the passion but may need to find focus.
Thanks Rose
Some really good tips. I don’t think I have the creative talent to write a whole book or the patience. I wouldn’t know where to start. It’s good there is a guide to help people along.
Wow, I think perhaps everyone might have thought about writing a book at one point and time. These are some great things to consider and keep in mind. Thanks for sharing!
