I was looking at digg this morning. After my ventures with Tiwtter, which seem to be working, it’s time to expand my understanding of social media. I don’t know that I understand digg any better, but I did find this article: How to write a book – the short honest truth.
It’s by Scott Berkun, a public speaker with an interesting resume. And he’s right on about writing a book. He’s right that often people simply need permission to get started writing their book. He’s right that there’s no magic in book writing because nothing happens until words get on paper. He’s also right when he says that writing a book worth reading is a whole lot of hard work.
I know because I write books – I ghostwrite books for people and I write books and ebooks under my own name.
It’s almost anoying how much I agree with Scott. In fact, I can’t find a single thing to quarrel with.
So if you want to get a book written, make sure you read his article. Then check out Writing With Vision – a site of mine dedicated to book writing. Or, hire me as a ghostwriter.
Write well and often,

LOL I loved where he said that people want to be rock star millionaires. As if!
Would be nice though!
Scott Berkun says: “These days people write books after they’re famous, not before.”
NOW you tell me!
