What can a book do for you?
If you are able to help people achieve their basic desires for health, wealth, and/or happiness in some meaningful way, you have the potential to write a book.
So this week let’s look at three things:
1) the different ways you can author a book
2) writing personalities
3) just what a quality book can do for you.
Which of these methods of compiling content appeals to you?
I am the main voice in the book, and refer to others’ work as well, through stories, research, reference material etc.
I invite others to share their views and experience in the book, by contributing around the central theme.
I am the curator of others’ knowledge and present it with/without commentary.
I co-publish with others.

As you write a book, you choose the way you gather and present information. You decide on what style of writing, or personality, best suits you, and what comes most naturally to you.
List your top two choices from the list above:

I discovered I discovered a passion as I wrote, and went on to
complete University studies. That never would have happened without the book. And the continual book sales and enquiries
are constant reminders that I have made a difference.
