    52 books in 52 weeks. Writing them.

    EXECUTION 
    Then they might buy the second, third, fifth, tenth, twentieth or 50th. What kind of question is that? Did you read the thread at all? EDIT: That wording might sound negative, what's your thinking behind that question?

    52 books in 52 weeks. Writing them.

    EXECUTION 
    Sorry I missed this, it looks like it might be changing anyway the way things are going. "No time like the present?" no shit, if only people extrapolated on that thought more often.

    I think I will be changing the start date the way things are going (which is well, might have to edit my first post). Great points about the Christmas period! Might make the book winter themed instead, and see what happens. Progress update: Haven't made the desired tweaks to the website yet...

    EXECUTION 
    Thanks for that! Very encouraging words. I'm doing the dummy run on a half finished book this week, so we'll see how that goes. Then I'm going to do a book from scratch dummy run after that is completed. If either of these fail, then that's the plan out the window. You could say these will be...

    EXECUTION 
    I didn't explain that calendar thing did I? I meant in a positive way. You'll see it happen in this thread at some point hopefully. Thanks for the rest of your thoughts and insight too. I'm not money chasing, if I were I'd probably be doing those adult coloring books.

    Yes I believe so, I've done a lot of research to get to the 5 niches I've picked. Right, every question responded too I believe. Here's an update: I went through all my drafts/outlines to see what I had to build upon, and I found one book that I'd kind of forgotten about that was half done...

    52 books in 52 weeks. Writing them.

    EXECUTION 
    Great points, maybe I don't need any more prep. I guess I'll find out at the end of the week. Not self-published before, and yes I've sold stuff before, I even try and work some copywriting into my classified ads . I didn't quite answer the question on why 52 books in 52 weeks above did I...

    EXECUTION 
    These got me thinking, thanks Allen! I'm going to start by doing it all myself, writing + cover design and everything else. Not sure if this is a good idea but we'll see what happens, if I find bits I'm doing myself (formatting, editing, cover design etc) start to be time wasting, then I'll...

    EXECUTION 
    Okay f*** it, this week I'm going to do a dummy run. It's Monday, so today I'm going to take one of my outlines, and start filling it out to a completed book, which I want published by Friday. I'll check the thread at night, and update on my progress and reply to any questions/posts in the thread.

    EXECUTION 
    The little side conversation on Action in this thread is quite interesting. I'll say I've started when the first book is published, this is preparation. Maybe I've done too much, maybe too little, only the results will tell me.

    EXECUTION 
    I'm writing fiction (short novellas) and non-fiction. I've spent a bit of time finding niches, and also been thinking about what I can write about, and picked 5 niches from there. This kind of answers question 4 too, there will be 5 pen names total, one for each niche. The websites are to...

    Action already taken: 1. Put GrumpCat on ignore. 2. Outlines for 10 books already completed. 3. Book covers designed for 5 of the books. 4. Domain names purchased for the pen names and websites built for 2 of them. 5. Useful software purchased (scrivener and one other Amazon tool I will reveal...

    52 books in 52 weeks. Writing them.

    EXECUTION 
    If you have read what I've posted here so far, you'll know that I've read 52 books in 52 weeks. The other thing you will have noted is the fact that I've done fudge all as far as making myself a true fastlaner since joining. "Enough is enough and it's time for a change". (actually this isn't...

    Does anybody know anything about recurring income from music?

    You could make it more passive by selling your stuff on stock websites (there's just as many for music and sounds these days as there are for photos). Maybe have a personal blog too that people can check for updates etc. The only way to make it recurring would be some kind of licensing deal...

    When does it go from learning to mental masturbation?

    MINDSET 
    This thread links well to the one I started, that @NVious mentions above. I think you have to find a balance in it, I was all about action until I was about 23 maybe even 25. I think pure action can be tied to money chasing, if all you want is to make money, then that's the way you'll head...

    $120 = 40 hours : Why you should cancel your BS subscriptions now

    One thing I've changed recently is my phone. No more contract! I've gone from $50 per month, to $55 every 90 days. Old phone bill per year: $600 New phone bill per year: $220 $380 saved. Need to re-work the TV bill next.

    Very interesting topic. I remember watching something about this subject a couple years ago, I forget the name of the documentary though, but it was mainly focused on this Doctor (again can't remember his name) and he was talking about the singularity etc too. Anyone know the documentary I'm...
