how to write a nonfiction book

So, you want to write a book?

Setting out to write a book can feel like looking up at an enormous mountain while wearing flip flops! But it doesn’t have to be as difficult as you think.

Did you know that the average nonfiction manuscript is around 60,000 words?

And did you know that three typed pages adds up to about 1,000 words?

What if you typed just three pages per day for 60 days?

Yep, that’s right. You’d have a manuscript!
