Is It Possible to Write an Ebook in Only 6 Days?

So you wanna write a book.

Not only do you want to write a book, but you want to write it quickly.

But is it possible to write a book in only 6 days?

Well they say that anything is possible, and there are other authors who have written not just books, but prize-winning books in less than one week.

Famous entrepreneur Dan Kennedy once wrote a book in only 3 days. Best-selling author Stuart Wilde wrote most of his books in only 2 or 3 days.

Dr Joe Vitale wrote his best-selling book "Turbocharge Your Writing" in only one day. 

Sylvester Stallone wrote the script for "Rocky" in just 3 days. 

And William Saroyan wrote his Pulitzer Prize-winning play "The Time of Your Life" in only 6 days.

So you see not only is it possible to write a book in only 6 days, if you're really motivated you could finish it in much less time.

And if your book is good, the income from it can be phenomenal.

When Dr Joe Vitale first published his e-book, "Hypnotic Writing", he sold 100 copies of this $29.95 book in only one hour. Three months later he'd earned a massive $45,000 from this one book alone.

Top copywriter, David Garfinkel, published an e-book called "Killer Copy Tactics" that brought in $35,000 in only 2 months.

So as you can see, not only is it possible to write a book in 6 days, it can also have great income potential.

Off-Line And Not Writing

You may have noticed (or not) that I haven't posted anything for over a week now.

And the reason is two-fold.

First of all, my computer had a meltdown.

It started slowing down and crashing and then began issuing "Panic Reports." I had no idea what they were until someone at the computer shop explained to me that they are what the computer does when it struggles to open apps and times-out too often.

Anyway, long story short, it turned out that my operating system, that I'd only updated a few weeks ago, had become corrupted and so it was struggling to open apps, even standard ones like Apple Mail.

And so after spending several days trying to clean up my hard drive and rebooting my computer, I finally had to give in and take it to the shop for a few days.

But now it's back.

I had to spend a few days without my email or any of my usual digital files, so I had to occupy myself by catching up a few other things I'd been putting off.

The second problem was that there was a bit of a family emergency that I had to deal with, which consumed both my time and my mind.

But now that fire is out and things are back to normal.

So now I'm back to writing and posting on my websites.

And the best thing is that even though I hadn't worked for a few days, it didn't interfere with my income and my books went on selling and my websites continued to earn money.

That's just one of the things that I love about my work-from-home writing job.

But I wouldn't want to be away from the online world for too long because it could end up costing me money, and I'd miss it too much.

The Biggest Mistake Writers Make That Holds Them Back

There are so many writers that never write a damn thing.

So are they really writers?

They want to write yet never seem to do any. Or sometimes very little.

So one day I polled my subscribers about this and do you know what I found out?

I discovered that many of them didn’t want to write at all.

They wanted to work from home as a writer, but not do any writing.

They wanted to earn money from writing, and they call themselves writers, but they seemed to be looking for a way to get-rich-quick.

This is a huge mistake because writing = work.

I know that when you’re looking in from the outside, it seems like writers make money from doing nothing, but it is work.

At the same time, it’s better than having a J.O.B.

I much prefer to write from home.

Which would you rather do?

I can make writing really easy for you if you download my 7 Day Ebook Writing and Publishing System.

But I can’t do it for you.

Dishonesty Sucks

If there’s one thing that you really need in your writing, it’s honesty.

It’s important to be honest about who you are.

It’s also equally important to be honest about the subject you write about.

I saw a writing course last week about how to write novels quickly. But a fast Google search showed me that the person who wrote the course only had one romance novel (self) published and it didn’t look popular. So she was being dishonest about knowing how to write lots of novels and make lots of money as she was claiming to have done.

It reminded me of an incident that happened a couple of years ago when a driver stopped their car on a blind bend, which caused my daughter to run into the back of them.

The woman whose car she hit was claiming that there was thousands of dollars worth of damage to her car, even though the bump was only a bit of a tow-bar tap and her car looked fine.

She said her rear door was damaged, her bumper bar was split, and that there was interior damage to her car as well, and she went on to provided quotes for all the replacement parts.

We refused to give her any money so she took all three of us to court (my husband and I owned the car our daughter was driving so we got dragged into it too) but because the woman only had quotes for replacement parts and no proof of damage, her case was dismissed. And she was livid. It had cost her a lot of time and hundreds of dollars to bring the case to court. She was so angry that the security guard had to keep her there while we exited the courthouse first and they made sure we were out of sight before she was allowed out.

But her financial loss and humiliation was her own fault for being dishonest.

In life and in business it’s better to be honest because people aren’t stupid, and if they are then you don’t want them as customers.

Just be yourself, be honest in all you so and all you write, and it will help you to write better and earn more money.

Why You’re Not Writing

Do you wake up every day inspired to write but time gets away from you and you end up doing hardly anything at all?

Do you want to write more every day but never seem to have the time?

Well, it’s probably because you don’t understand the importance of time.

Even more than that, you probably don’t understand how to efficiently use the time you have every day.

This is why I often talk about how useful it is to work in Pomodoros because they get you working quickly with better focus and no wasted time.

And if you’re like me, once you start writing, it’s easy to keep going.

Pomodoros also help because they keep you focused. And two hours of focused work is better than a whole day of distractions.

If you want to know where your time goes every day, you can time-map your days to see how you’re REALLY spending your time.

A time map will also show you how everything that you want to accomplish won’t fit into one day, which is why you’re often defeated when time gets away from you.

I’m always guilty of trying to cram too much into my days and then I get frustrated which leads to distraction and procrastination.

That’s why I love using writing systems like my 7 Day Ebook Writing and Publishing System which has clear steps to follow so that by the time you’ve worked your way through the book, your manuscript is written AND published.

Not Your Mum. Not Your Milk

Last week, after going to the cinema, I was looking around for a good place to eat, and I stumbled across a place called No Moo Burgers.

It was a completely vegan cafe that had a huge range of burgers, so I went in for a healthy meal.

While I was sitting and enjoying my food (which was really delicious) I was looking around the place and noted that they really had a strong brand which was evident in everything around me.

For a start, the place was called No Moo Burgers which immediately told me that their burgers contained nothing from a cow.

The staff were wearing T-shirts which loudly proclaimed, Not Your Mum. Not Your Milk.

And every bit of writing on the menus, the walls and the front of the counter, was all about plant-based food, healthy diets and saving the planet.

They really had a strong brand and knew exactly what they stood for.

And as I ate I thought about how so many writers fail because they don’t know what their brand is.

They ‘wander' aimlessly not knowing what kind of a writer they want to be, so end up not doing much writing.

So what should they do?

The answer is to try a bit of every kind of writing to see what ‘floats their boat.’

If this is you, try it too. Try everything including freelancing, blogging, client work, books, ebooks, fiction, and non-fiction. 

One of them is bound to create a “Hell yeah!” moment.

And once you know what you want to write, just like No Moo Burgers, build your business around your best writing.
