Writer's Block

Do you have writer’s block?  It usually starts out something like this… You have a brilliant idea, something you know needs to be in your book… So you sit down in front of your computer, start writing… and suddenly your mind goes blank.   And you sit there, trying to figure out how to say what what you wanted to say… Blink… Blink… Blink… (is your cursor mocking you?)

Here’s what’s wrong… you’re intellectualizing.  Good writing comes from passion – which I know you have.  So that’s where you need to start. Focus on your passion. Don’t worry about getting every word just right.

Having writer’s block is another reason why many of my ghostwriting clients are doctors. Because your best writing is going to come from your gut – from your passion about your subject and your desire to write the best possible book… And that’s where we start. But after that, the actually sitting at the keyboard and writing each and every chapter requires a writing system – in fact, having a writing system is absolutely critical to your becoming a published author – and one day not so long from now, holding your book in your hands, seeing your name in print, and your photo on the back cover.

When we start working on your book together, I will help you take your ideas, your passion for your subject and your earnest desire to create something meaningful – and get it out of your head and into a marketable manuscript.
