Stop Waiting, Start Writing JUNE 04, 2025
If you’ve ever said, “I’ve always wanted to write a book,” you’re not alone.
Over the years, I’ve lost count of how many times someone has told me they have a great idea for a novel, a memoir, or a short story—but they just don’t know how to start. They look at writing like it’s some secret club with a password and hidden rules. And every time, I give the same answer:
You start by starting.
There’s no golden formula. No perfect time. No need to have every chapter outlined or every detail figured out. Whether you’re writing fiction, telling your life story, or building a world from scratch, it all begins with one simple action—putting words on the page.
In this blog, I’m going to walk you through what that really means. No fluff. No gatekeeping. Just real, practical insight into what it takes to go from blank page to finished book—starting with the most important step of all:
Just start writing.
