It’s SUMMERTIME … what are you going to do to add to your offerings to Fans, Followers and those who are looking for solutions to problems?
Have your thought about a new, quickie book? Would you like to get the guts of it done in JUST 4 WEEKS? Say what–a new book in a month?
YUP … yes you can AND YOU can start in July. By FALL, with work … it can become a Ta Dah! A new book (or maybe your first toe in the publishing waters). 
How does an author achieve this feat? Start by brutally cutting words … get ready to cut your book in half—maybe more! Or start with blogs, let’s create a stream of synergistic content to create Fans or re-excite them. Or maybe, just pulling a bunch of your written “stuff” together. With me as your guide and mentor, your mission is doable. As The Book Shepherd, I promise you.
Questions to ask yourself include:
- Could your book be a series?
- What are the must-have elements?
- Did you include any “filler” material in already published book?
- Is there anything within a current book that is more ego driven than essential content?
- What parts are vital to your topic, work and vision?
- Are you able to let go and dump (or save for the next book).
“Yikes,” you are thinking. “This is an impossible task!” “Not so,” says Judith, “it’s actually fun and eye-opening. Is it work? Yes. Does it pay off? Yes again.”
Eliminate the Superfluous Parts and Create the Best Book You Can for Your Buyer
Your books are BUSINESS. There isn’t a book out that doesn’t have some fluff—filler material that is nice to have, yet not crucial to the storyline, your expertise or solution to the underlying theme of your book. With short being the new black, brutal becomes part of your vocabulary. Brutal. The word cutting room is at your fingertips. To be successful, you’ve got to be willing and able to cut.
What you’ll have when you’re finished is a far better product than that gangly, over-wordy tome you started with. Trust me. It might just have the makings of a bestseller!
