steps to prevent burnout when writing a book

1. Planning a to write and
publish a book
The milestones in a long journey

2. Record everything
• Keeping a journal (digital or written) can not only
help to keep track of your progress but can also help
create content for marketing on social media by
having tons of information regarding plot
development, character development, inspirations
and cute behind the scene moments.
• it also helps shed light on raw emotions of the author
and team during the making of the book.
• taking pics and creating video logs help create depth

3. let it take time
Rome wasn't built in a day and neither can your
perfect book be written in one.
don't get frustrated. its a long process to flesh out
vague ideas that come in bits and pieces.
make friends with coffee or tea and good vibe
music
no one knows when you get hit by an idea so have
a recorder of sorts (voice recorder, mobile, pen and
paper etc) to jot down ideas as they come

4. redo is our new best friend
• we are never done re writing the book and we keep
at it till we feel its done
• make sure all loose threads in the story are tied up
in a sensible way
• figured out a better way tkalay out a scene great
redo it
• the more we work on our piece the better it gets

5. even the best get rejected
• if J K Rowling to hear nope when submitting harry
potter manuscripts so can you
• just keep trying
• also dont hesitate to ask for help
• we cant all be great at every aspects of book
creation so dont forget to ask and give help when
needed

6. its already written
• your version can be written only by you and thats
what makes it unique
• do the research and get it checked
• ask questions
• keep fact checking- by yourself and by a 3rd party
• ask the experts opinion
• its always worth it to go the extra mile no matter
what the genre you are writing for

7. take a break
• when it gets tough, stop, push back and take a
break
• never get up and leave your work
• always rechrge yourself and get back to making
your book.
• recharge yourself and keep sensible deadlines
