So here it is, the New Year. This is the year you promised yourself you would finish that book and get it published. <\/p>\n
Do you have a plan? What is your first step? How do you expect to handle the ongoing process? What is your backup plan? What is different this year than in past years to make your dream finally come true\u2014to help you to meet your goal?<\/p>\n
I would suggest that number one on your list is to educate yourself. Study books and articles and attend lectures designed to educate yourself about what it takes to become a published author.<\/p>\n
Then gather information. What resources do you need at your fingertips? <\/p>\n
Find a mentor or hire a coach to help ease you over the stumbling blocks you\u2019ll inevitably come across. <\/p>\n
Many, if not most, authors make many mistakes when they set out to join the ranks of the successfully published. Why? Because they neglect to look in all directions. They step outside their writing room wearing blinders and walk quickly to the only place they know within the publishing realm (usually a major publishing house) and they make a clumsy presentation for a book that isn\u2019t ready to be published. And they wonder why they can\u2019t get published. <\/p>\n
