How Do I Create A Book?

How do I create a book?

Coming up with an amazing idea is hard, and there is no one-size-fits-all formula for coming up with great ideas. Here are some different things you can try. Study the plot. I think roughly 90% of stories we like follow the same three plot lines. So first, you need to know how to write a plot. You need to study how to be an excellent story teller, no matter if you write fiction or non-fiction. Watch this amazing presentation by Kurt Vonnegut. And read the The Hero with a Thousand Faces by Campbell. Find the title. Brainstorming on a title, sometimes helps getting the creative juices flowing. Use a title generator and pick the ones you like. Think about what story fits the individual title. Read. Read others work. Study them. Think about what you like, and dislike about them. Experience. Get out there and experience something. Experiencing stuff will eventually inspire you. Write. Get writing. Write every day. Small stories, a diary or Quora posts. Every, single, day. Epictetus said it best "If you want to be a writer, write". Feedback. Get feedback on your stuff. Find a mentor who can guide you in the right direction. Talk to your audience and let them help you shape you content. Getting a story in the first go without talking to anyone about it is near impossible. Get drunk. We are often afraid of failing, afraid our material isn't good enough. We expect a masterpiece in the first go. We limit outselves and cannot get anything down on paper. Get the juices flowing. Write drunk, edit sober. Don't want to take my word for it? Ask Hemmingway then. Hope it help! We are looking forward to read your first draft.
