Admit it. You want to write a book. Maybe this is a new idea that just occurred to you, or perhaps it's something you've thought about for some time. Either way, once you begin the process, you will love it! You might even become obsessed with writing.
And no, it most likely won't be a 300-page New York Times bestseller that you'll create in only 90 days, but you will be able to write an actual 50 to 100-page book, working only 7 minutes per day. Perhaps you'll want to write for a bit longer at each session. It's totally up to you...your decision, your desire, your dedication and your determination to write, write and write some more.
Do you want to tell your life story? What a perfect gift to your children or grandchildren! Maybe you want to share what you've learned about life and convey your vision and your values. Perhaps you want to design your own characters and create a story to place them in. Either way, when you've finished your book, you'll be so proud of what you've accomplished. You can inspire your readers towards a higher purpose, heal the pain they are experiencing through a story of triumph over adversity, or make them forget their own problems as you take them on a magical journey you've created in your mind.
So grab your pencil and get ready to fill in the blanks to create a writing plan for your story that you can soon share with the world!
