Dan Poynter: Books: Tips, Stories, & Advice on Writing, Publishing, & Promoting [Kindle Edition]Your book not only should inform, it should move your reader to action.  Too much writing explains how to do something but does not motivate the reader to do it.Create a binder and carry it with you everywhere.First decide whether to entertain or inform?Focus on who your audience is what you plan to give them.Consider who will buy your book and what you plan to give them.  Who is your primary audience and your secondary audience?You must have expertise or experience to be a credible non fiction author.Expertise means you have an advanced degree in the field,Experience means you have lived it.* Have personal experience* Dedication to do research* Deep desire to spread the word* HAVE YOU BEEN THERE?Write it!Write a fresh outlook, when you are beginning a new field or career, you have the same questions your readers will have.Write as you learn, record as you study.Do not write about what you use to do, pursue what you want to do.Write about what you like to do when you are NOT working and the writing won't seem like work.Publish family history book[...]I enjoyed reading this easy to understand book.  I plan to write my own books one day and wanted to read what popular book authors write about.  I learn from each book and will consider it as I write and publish my own books.  The is a how to guide and you will feel like you learned a lot.  It is the start of my research on how to write books.  Hope you enjoy it as I did and the many who did a review on Dan's book. 2012 Jackie Paulson
