  1. The only way to write a book is\u2026 writing it<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n

    I know, I know\u2014this sounds like the vaguest advice ever. But honestly? It\u2019s true. While I\u2019m aware that the process that worked for me might not be the one for you, one thing is for sure: if you don\u2019t take your ideas from the realm of imagination and put them into paper (or computer or whatever you write in), they won\u2019t become a book all on their own. You need to do that work yourself.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

      \n
    1. Writing it is the easiest part (and the most fun)<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n

      While writing a book – as in, putting the words into sentences in a document – is a hard process on its own, when it comes to writing a book, it is the easiest part. Once the writing is done, there\u2019s editing (and more editing), designing the cover, formatting the layout, publishing, marketing, and everything else\u2026 Yeah, writing a book is no easy feat. But I\u2019ll tell you what, it is a hell of a lot of fun.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

        \n
      1. Write what you want to read<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n

        Again, very cliche piece of advice, but it is true. There are two main reasons why you should write what you want to read. 1) if you do that, the result you\u2019ll get at the end of your journey is sure to make you very proud. 2) You are going to be reading your own book again and again and again and one more time\u2026 It\u2019s tiring, it\u2019s true, but if what you\u2019ve written is something you like to read, it makes the whole process a whole lot easier.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

          \n
        1. Have good people around you<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n

          And by that I mean people who believe in you and your book and who are ready to offer you a shoulder to cry on or someone to vent to – trust me, you\u2019re gonna need that. Many people think writing a book is a solitary journey, but having a support system cheering you on makes all the difference.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

            \n
          1. Read! Read a lot! Read everything!<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n

            Reading and writing go hand in hand. Not only does reading improve your writing, but it also sparks inspiration. So, when you are writing, read. When you feel stuck in your writing, read. When you enjoy your writing, read. Learn to love reading and you are sure to learn to love writing even more.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

            Those are some of the things I\u2019ve learned while writing my first book. I hope they help! Got any tips of your own? I\u2019d love to hear them!<\/p>\n\n\n\n
