How To Write A Book Seminar

You have your own story to tell. You can write your own book. If you can't find a publisher for your book, self-publish it. Central Books can do the publishing for you at an affordable price. You can also sell your books online.

Here are some snippets of the talk by the renowned author, Dr. Isagani Cruz:

"Whatever you say, whatever you do, happens to other people too... Self-publish your book."

"People are looking for long words. There's a dearth of reading materials nowadays. Write your book. It should be about you."

"There are so many books about ordinary people. You don't have to be a great writer to write your life story. Tell your life story."

"If you write it, somebody would read it. If you do it, someone will come. Autobiography is simplest. Write it because you want to share"




"Write anytime as long as it's at the same time; anywhere as long as it's at the same place."

"Promise to yourself: I will write from ____o'clock to ____o'clock every ____. I will write in ___"

"Start anywhere in the book not necessarily page 1, don't rewrite, just keep writing, write at least minimum words per day (500+)"

"You need to get out your first draft. Dimensions of writing: time, space, I will write ___ words every time I write"

"To write you have to write whether it's garbage or mediocre, writing begets writing, you get better every time you write."

"Begin with the strongest idea, arrange work into concrete shape, nurture it with love so others can love it too. Then, let it go."

Thank you to Dr. Isagani Cruz, Central Books, Fully Booked, and National Book Development Board for making this event possible. You've fueled my writing.
