This is my second book (if one does not count my doctoral dissertation of 330 pages as a monograph) and I have to say that I have found my own way of building the content. It is much easier that with the first one, and I now know what works best for me as a person. I like to write, I love to research but I have to learn to be better to control myself with one thing… Everything does not have to be done overnight. I tend to drill down to my work, spend up to 14 hours and that is obviously not good for me nor to my family. I have a few books written by authors and they explain their daily process and one that I like a lot is a book by the famous Stephen King and his book On Writing is a facinating story of his writing process and how he develops his stories.
What I need to learn is to “let go” after a few hours of writing and just trust the fact that I still have it the following day. I believe this model would be much better and more effective. The iterative process that I have in writing is effective and now combining my book research by using Amazon.com Kindle books using Windows desktop application is just a killer combination. I wish I could do this for a living… but it is like with ice-hockey… only a very small crowd make real money in writing books…
