Comments on: How To Write a Book Fast? http://perrybelchersuccess.com/31/write-book-fast/ Perry Belcher Secrets Thu, 21 Jul 2011 19:30:52 +0000 http://wordpress.org/?v=2.9.2 hourly 1 By: ken winston caine http://perrybelchersuccess.com/31/write-book-fast/comment-page-4/#comment-1056 ken winston caine Fri, 24 Jun 2011 20:27:58 +0000 http://perrybelchersuccess.com/?p=31#comment-1056 I agree with Cheryl on most of her points. But I DO want to point out: Perry HAS an outline. That's what his notecards are, with chapter names and subheads and one-sentence reminders. That same essential system has served me well for 35 years and through 25 published books. Hope Perry has responded, deep down in these comments, with his progress update. His plan is solid, so long as he moves straight ahead with it and doesn't let anything distract him sidewise or turn him backwards. That's where writer's get stuck. You've got to rip out a draft, no matter how awful it, as Cheryl said. Then you have something to work with. Best wishes, ken winston caine I agree with Cheryl on most of her points.

I have incredibly awesome material for a book or more, It's about my life. I am so busy with it and so much happens I don't have time to actually write. I was wondering if there is such a thing as a voice recorder that could type the words. Or if I just record it everyday and then get an editor is that the way to go? Any advice would be appreciated. Thank you. Hi, I really need some advice and don’t know where to ask.

Is the book done? I think your plan was a great one. I'm curious if it worked. I write and teach about writing books and getting them published. I also help people edit their books.
