Please listen to the audio below!
I haven’t transcribed the audio into text, and don’t know when (or if) I will.
More and more, I’m finding blogging is easier to do when I’m chatting into my little mp3 recorder, rather than writing a lengthy blog post. Mainly because I’m such a perfectionist and I read and re-read the post a hundred times, constantly tweaking (for hours or days) which means I don’t have much time for anything else!
So, I’ve made my what-to-write-the-first-book-about decision, within the fortnight deadline I set myself – just.
For my First Book, I’ve decided to go with the Fast and Easy (diary) option (see my last post for full details of all the options I was exploring).
My diaries are already written and there are lots of them. With luck, if you’re working with something you’ve already written, it should be fast and easy to create a book out of it – at least that is the hope!
The audio cuts off in the beginning – or rather I edited out the first bit. I was chatting away, as if to a friend, all free and easy. But when I listened back I thought, “Hang on, maybe I shouldn’t tell the whole world that“.
Not just yet anyway. I’m sure it will appear in one of my books further down the line 🙂
Happy Writing!
Way to go Claire. Do you feel like a small weight has been lifted by that decision. Good luck with the writing. Are you going to serialise it online or go straight to book mode?
Thanks Su! Yes, I feel a weight has lifted and at the moment, fairly calm. Am definitely going straight to book mode, as the thought of serialising is a brilliant one but would put me under far too much pressure – it scares me to death! Maybe later – book two? (Or maybe never!)
Hope it’s all going great with your projects. Let me know the link to your blog/s when you’re ready. I appreciate your support and would love to do the same 🙂 Thanks again!
