    Authorpreneur in the Making. Goal - The Unscripted Life.

    EXECUTION 
    Totally agree. I didn't much like the idea myself, but thought of experimenting. I see my error though, it's not about me at all, it's about the reader. Only when I serve them best will I win. Short books no matter how well written can give an impression that I am out there to make some quick...

    Authorpreneur in the Making. Goal - The Unscripted Life.

    EXECUTION 
    I've been missing from the scene for a while. Did get distracted and off track for sometime. I am back here now. While I was working on my second book since I quit my job, I never got to complete it. Not even until today. I picked a difficult topic, that in spite of several hours of research...

    Authorpreneur in the Making. Goal - The Unscripted Life.

    EXECUTION 
    Monthly Update: March 2020 Still working on the book. Got distracted for obvious reasons -- I don't even want to talk about, since everyone is already talking about it. It sure got harder this month, but I have been able to get myself together and get going. From all that is happening in the...

    Authorpreneur in the Making. Goal - The Unscripted Life.

    EXECUTION 
    Monthly Update February 2020: Published 1 Short Book. 3k Words. I found that I was getting stuck with the 20k word book, so decided to write a quick short guide and publish it to get things going. Sure felt good! It was a roller coaster ride this month, I found myself wanting to start working...

    Authorpreneur in the Making. Goal - The Unscripted Life.

    EXECUTION 
    Monthly Update: January 2020 I am still writing the first book I started working on in December. There has been a lot of procrastination, diversion & challenges so far. Things haven't panned out as I thought they would, but I am here, still keeping my focus on hitting publish. With that...

    Change Instead of posting daily, I am switching over to a monthly post. I will update this thread in the last week of the month. In between I might make a drop in if I have something important to add to this thread. So the next post will be in the last week of January. Cya

    Authorpreneur in the Making. Goal - The Unscripted Life.

    EXECUTION 
    Day 42 - Wasted my time looking at some other biz model! Day 43 - Almost thought of giving up on the Author business, because this other business seemed more appealing. But came back to my senses, wrote about 1000 words and called it a day. I learned something valuable today: -When you...

    Authorpreneur in the Making. Goal - The Unscripted Life.

    EXECUTION 
    Day 41 Had a slow start to the day, but ended up with a 1000 words. In between, did more research, as I add more chapters. Love the fact that you get to learn so much, and that can have a positive impact on your life beyond $ On another note, for fitness, I've started doing Qigong and it...

    Authorpreneurship???

    If you have never written/published a book before, simply go ahead and write the story that is in your head. Make it short, around 5000 words. Make sure it reads well in terms of grammar. Don't spend on a cover, make one of your own. And if you don't know how to do that, let me know and I will...

    Authorpreneur in the Making. Goal - The Unscripted Life.

    EXECUTION 
    Day 40: I have reviewed the idea of just writing One Book, and thanks to MTF it sure isn't the best route for a writer. It could be a good idea for those who just want to publish a book for credibility in whatever else they are doing. But for someone like me who is aiming at Authorpreneurship...

    Authorpreneur in the Making. Goal - The Unscripted Life.

    EXECUTION 
    I can see from your view point, and there are two reasons why writing more books could be essential, for one, no amount of research can result in an accurate prediction of how a book will do, it is eventually for the market to decide that? Did this happen with you? That you wrote several books...

    Authorpreneur in the Making. Goal - The Unscripted Life.

    EXECUTION 
    Day 38 - Took a day off Day 39 - Added 500 words to the draft. Can say this too was more like a day off. There is a reason I have slowed down. I have been questioning what I have learned so far in the author business. "Keep publishing more books." That's the usual mantra. And so far I have...
