We are now PBL Simplified, a name that matches my book coming out in January of 2023. I’m taking Project Based Learning and simplifying it, so you can bring it to your school, classroom, or district. Recently, tons of questions about how to write a book, publish, etc. have come up in my mastermind group. It’s such a hot topic that I’m talking about it today.
In the next two leadership episodes, I’m going to be talking about writing a book. Our “Need to Know” is going to be about finding the topic of the book, because everybody has a book in them. Then we move on to our main topic which is how to get started writing a book. We kick off with the first three steps to getting your book on its way.
Episode Highlights:
[02:36] Find your topic: What gets you fired up? What do you often say? If you’re a leader, you probably have a saying that you start every meeting with.
[03:38] My tagline used to be life is choices.
[06:23] There are six steps to writing a book: vision and goals, outline, big picture writing, share your first draft, find an editor, and get a publisher.
[07:19] Find your vision and goal. Why do you want to write the book? What’s your vision and the topic that you are passionate about?
[13:47] Outline: I like to use an old fashioned mind map. Major topics will become chapters. You can then formulate your ideas.
[16:38] Start big picture writing. Do not edit! Get some words on the page. Don’t limit yourself. Create time for this.
