03 Dec 3 Qs aspiring authors must answer to gain clarity and confidence
Writing a book can feel like trying to assemble a puzzle with too many pieces — ideas, passions, and dreams scattered everywhere. The more you try to fit them together, the more overwhelming it gets. But here’s the truth: the picture you’re searching for is already within you. As someone who has helped numerous aspiring authors find clarity, I know how to guide you through this maze of thoughts and uncover the seed of your book — the idea that will bring it all together.
Many of the people I work with come to me overflowing with ideas but unsure where to start. This is especially true for:
- 1. Experienced professionals who want to share their wisdom.
- 2. Empaths who feel called to alleviate the suffering of others.
- 3. Career changers seeking to channel their diverse experiences into something meaningful.
If you’re in this space, wondering what your book should focus on, these three questions can help you untangle your thoughts and gain clarity:
1. Why do you want to write a book?
Your motivation matters. Is it to share your story, establish authority, inspire change, or leave a legacy? Understanding your “why” sets the foundation for the book’s purpose and direction.
2. Who is your target audience?
Picture the person you want reading your book. Is it a young professional looking for guidance, someone struggling with a challenge you’ve overcome, or peers in your industry? Knowing your audience helps you craft a message that resonates deeply.
3. What do you want to achieve with your book?
Are you looking to educate, inspire, or entertain? Do you want your book to open doors, build credibility, or spark a movement? Defining your goal shapes the structure and tone of your book.
In the professional writing world, we call this process “arriving at the germ” — finding the essence or the seed of your book. Once you identify it, everything else begins to fall into place.
The journey of writing a book isn’t just about putting words on a page; it’s about discovering yourself and your purpose. If you’re ready to take the leap and uncover your book’s potential, I’d love to guide you through this rewarding process.
Feel free to reach out if you’re ready to illuminate the path to your treasure.
Let’s clear the maze together.
