Description
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">If you have published blog posts, podcasts, videos, or have given presentations; you may already have content you can use for your book. </span></p> <p><span style="font-weight: 400;">Take a moment to look over the content you have already created to see if you can repurpose it and include it in your book. </span></p> <p><span style="font-weight: 400;">For example:</span></p> <ul> <li><span style="font-weight: 400;">Podcasts and videos can be transcribed.</span></li> <li><span style="font-weight: 400;">Presentation slides can be used as part of your outline. </span></li> <li><span style="font-weight: 400;">Deleted scenes can be fleshed out and used as a free gift for newsletter subscribers.</span></li> <li><span style="font-weight: 400;">Journal content can be used when sharing your own story or journey.</span></li> <li><span style="font-weight: 400;">Even social media posts and emails can be repurposed into content for your books.</span></li> </ul> <p><span style="font-weight: 400;">Here are a few of my personal examples:</span></p> <ul> <li><span style="font-weight: 400;">My very first book, “Mirror Mirror…Am I Beautiful,” was created from articles on my website. </span></li> <li><span style="font-weight: 400;">The outline for our book, “Forgiveness Formula,” came from our presentations on the topics that were well received. I also used some of my journal content in this book.</span></li> <li><span style="font-weight: 400;">“Procrastination to Publication,” was transcribed from one-hour audio and then edited into a book.</span></li> <li><span style="font-weight: 400;">“Prolific Publisher,” was transcribed from a webinar presentation and then edited into a book.</span></li> <li><span style="font-weight: 400;">“Self-Publishing Books 101,” was created from blog posts and expanded into a resource many writers have used to self publish their books.</span></li> </ul> <p><span style="font-weight: 400;">The options are limitless! Don’t forget to consider the content you already have
