Desire to Compose a Literary Masterpiece
Hey there, my friend! Let's talk about digging out those hidden stories that have been buried beneath the surface for years. You may think you're as exciting as watching paint dry, but trust me, the world is itching to hear your captivating tales!
So, here are some fantastic ways to find that elusive story that'll leave readers begging for more:
Transform Your Podcast into a Novel
Millions of folks have given podcasting a whirl, and chances are you're one of them. With smartphones serving as our trusty recording devices, the barrier to entry is about as low as it gets. Give the Left of Normal Podcast a listen for a peek into my universe. Round up those episodes, give them a good once-over, and voila! Each one could potentially become another thrilling chapter of your book. Just remember, you can't just copy the transcript and call it a day. You'll need to give it a little polish.
Capitalize on Your College Education
Maybe podcasting isn't your jam, but you've still learned a boatload on your academic journey. Take that wealth of information you absorbed while studying in college and weave it in with your personal stories. Showcase your knowledge, mixed with some nostalgic tales from your college days, or perhaps how you've used that education to navigate modern life.
Embrace Your Adrenaline Junkie Spirit
Not everyone's a college grad, and that's perfectly okay! In today's world, a college degree isn't as valuable as it once was. Some folks choose a trade and make a fantastic living from it. Adventurers, you're a part of this club too! Regardless of whether you went to college or not, if you live for the thrill, you're a natural storyteller (even if you don't realize it yet). Share those electrifying adventures, whether it's climbing mountains or conquering the high seas. People can't get enough of that kind of stuff!
Showcase Your Expertise
You may have honed your skills in a specific industry over the years, and that expertise is a goldmine waiting to be shared! This is the area where I help people the most with their book-writing journey. When you've put in the hard work to become an expert, it's not only fulfilling to be good at your job but also to pass that wisdom on to others. So, don't be shy – flaunt that knowledge and check out some ways to use your book to give your career a boost.
Unleash the Power of Hobbies
Your expertise might not fall under the traditional job category. Maybe it's a hobby that you adore that holds the key to your story. Dive into that and share your knowledge. For me, most of the year, I can be found tendency-ing my garden. With a little creativity, I could write a book about growing the perfect tomato.
Delegate the Writing to a Ghostwriter
You may have plenty of ideas, but the thought of actually sitting down and putting them into words fills you with dread. That's where a ghostwriter comes to the rescue! A ghostwriter is like a secret writing partner who helps you bring your story to life, mimicking your voice and doing all the heavy lifting for you. Plus, you'll be a published author without having to spend hours and hours typing it all out.
