"I have a great idea for a book. How can I get started?"
I hear that from at least one person at every author event. My advice is to stop thinking about doing it and “Just do it”. Writing a book is similar to training for a marathon, except that it’s going to take a lot longer. Decide to commit, and then sit down in front of your computer, or a pen and paper, and put in the time. Not every day, but most days, if you can. Just like training for a marathon, there will be days where you feel invincible and your creativity is through the roof, and there will be days where you wonder what you were thinking because you’re positive you can’t write and you’ll never get it done. The most important thing is to keep at it. A terrible first draft chapter is still a better starting place for the next day than nothing at all. Of course there is a whole lot to learn along the way, but that will come gradually and naturally as you become more involved in the effort. If you want to write a book, you can.

Your insight is very interesting. I am an amateur author. I started my own book when I was still in high school. Unfortunately, I never had the chance to publish it. If you happen to had a great idea for a book, start by writing the main characters. Specify the details of these characters. After that, put yourself in the shoes of that characters. If you were them, what will you do? How will you react?

If there's something that you've always wanted to do for a very long time, just do it! You shouldn't ever think twice or doubt yourself in what you are capable of. How would you supposed to know that you suck at doing something if you haven't really experienced doing it in the first place? That's why I really admire the tagline of one of the most famous shoes brand in the industry. It inspires everyone to dream big and just do it. Thank you for sharing this such inspiring words of encouragement with us.
