Themes in Books are Like…

For many authors, developing themes in books is like getting fillings in their teeth: It may be necessary, but it’s a pain to even contemplate. Many of my clients have asked me why they need themes for their books. “I’ve got a lot of great stories” or information, they say. “Why can’t we just put it all in?” You may indeed have a lot of great stories or ideas, or facts or arguments, and feel they should all be put into your manuscript. But is that wise? Think about the silverware drawer in your kitchen. If you tossed every piece of cutlery you ever owned, every soup spoon, teaspoon, steak knif ..read more

I can, however, mention some of the items seen in book ghostwriting contracts so you can discuss them with your attorney. They include: What is to be written? This is a description of the book to be ghostwritten. It could be as brief as a line or two within the contract, or as long as several pages in an attachment. Among other things, the description should include the projected length of the book, usually in terms of the number of w ..read more

The beginning of a business memoir—the very first paragraph—is often the place you make or break your relationship with your reader. It’s the point where you have the opportunity to either hook your readers in or make them want to put your book down. But how can you be accessible, interesting, controversial, inviting, exciting, insightful, and/or irresistible, right off the bat? How can you also establish the tone and mood of your book and give some tantalizing hints of what is to come all at the same time?

Many authors set out to write their life stories believing they must tell the entire tale from beginning to end, including all the bits in between. While that would be a complete presentation of your life story, odds are it would also be a boring and aimless recitation of too many facts – one “and then I did” followed by another and another and another, with little rhyme or reason for the inclusion of all those details. That’s why stuffing everything that ever happened to you into your life story isn’t the best approach. A Better Approach to Your Life Story Instead, think of all of the facts ..read more
