Chapter
One
Be
a reader
If you want to write a
book, be a dedicated reader. Developing a reading habit will help you to be an
excellent writer. For example, if you're writing Christian books, fall in love
with Christian books. If you're going to write inspirational, motivational, and
self-help books, be a reader of that genre.
You cannot be a fan of
erotic books and write inspired Christian books. For example, if you want to be
an excellent Christian book writer, you must be born again.
If you are not born
again, you will not write books that can transform the sinner and edify the
Christian. Buy a hard copy of the Holy Bible and feed on it to enable you to
master your writing skills.
Download the Holy Bible
on your phones, laptops, iPhones, Android phones, and other electronic devices
and study it. Doing so helps you to be an outstanding writer. I have bought a
Ryrie Study Bible and other valuable Bible study books.
I study the Holy Bible to
enable me to write biblical and inspired books. I have software like Power
Bible CD, e-sword, the Word, and another premium bible study tool that helps me
get the relevant scriptures to write my books. You cannot be an excellent
writer if you hate research and reading.
It is through reading
that you develop your writing skills. Never think you can be a good writer if
you hate reading. I love to read non-fictional Christian books and self-help
books. I occasionally read other genres to help expand my mind on different subjects.
Devoting yourself to
books can improve your writing skills and make you a better writer. This is
what I have seen in my life. The more I read, the better I build my writing
skills. If you are lazy, you cannot write books.
Writing books demands
discipline and sacrifice. Sometimes, I can sit for over twelve hours to write a
book. When I decide to write a book, I can use a day to finish the book. This
is one reason I have written over forty books.
By the grace of God, I
have laid the foundations of over a hundred books and written over one hundred
and fifty Christian articles. This is just the beginning. You can write
articles and books if you are called and gifted. You can write books if you are
determined, consistent, and sacrificial.
Chapter
Two
Write
it
If you want to write
books, the next thing to do is write about every idea that comes to your mind.
I am teaching you the method I used to write my books. This method works for
me, and I believe that if you follow my proven principles, you will write many
books and articles.
Writing the ideas that
come into your mind will give you the foundations of your book. Download and
install notepad on your phone. If you don’t have a smartphone, get a pen and
paper or a pocketbook beside you; when the idea drops into your mind, write it.
Start with Articles
You can begin with
articles. An article can be a one-page document. I have opened my website for
Christian authors and bloggers to submit their inspired articles. Write for my
website if you want the world and Christians to read your article. Submit your
inspired article using this link.
I started writing when I
was in Senior High School. I remember reading Rick Joyner’s book titled “The
Final Quest.” I bought the hard copy in a Christian bookstore in Oda (a town in
the eastern region of Ghana).
By the time I finished
that powerful book, I had written inspirational articles inside the book. There
were some blank pages in Rick Joyner’s book, so I wrote whatever came to mind. The
words I wrote in Rick Joyner’s book are available as I am writing to you.
That is how I began
writing. I used to write commentaries on the Holy Bible. I bought exercise
books to write my books. I did not have a laptop or a desktop computer.
I wrote all my ideas in
my exercise books. When I got my laptop, I transferred the ideas I recorded in
my exercise books and journal into my laptop. I typed them myself.
Sometimes, I can stay up late
at night writing my books. When I lived with my parents, my mother always
complained that I was always indoors. I loved to be alone because it helped me
concentrate on my projects. When I was at University, I would enter the school
library with my laptop and write my books.
I remember my first book,
“Visions of the Night.” I finished that book when I was at University. My
second book, “How to Walk and Live in the Spirit,” took me almost three years
to finish. I will write, edit, rewrite, and make changes.
I thank the Amazon Kindle
team for taking the time to make all my changes to that book. I have
republished that book over twenty times. At the initial stage, your writing may
be imperfect. Don’t give up.
Keep reading and writing,
and you will become a better writer. As I said, write every idea that comes
into your mind, and study the Holy Bible if you want to write Christian books.
When you practice these principles, you will become an outstanding writer.
Chapter
Three
Seek
Knowledge
If you want to be an
excellent writer, study technology and learn how to use Microsoft Word. Improve
your typing speed. There are software like Mavis Beacon. This software can help
you to become a better and faster typist. Some softwares can help you edit your
books after writing. Use Grammarly and Pro writing aid.
I use Grammarly Premium
and Pro Writing Aid Premium to edit my books. Use the free versions if you
cannot afford to buy the premium package. You can integrate this software into
your Microsoft Word.
This software can correct
grammatical errors, punctuation, structure, and other aspects of your books and
articles. Before you use this software, make sure you have access to the
internet. After correcting the errors, proofread your book several times.
If you can afford to hire
a professional book editor, get one to help you make critical changes. I edit
my books using the premium versions of this software and proofread them myself.
When you edit your books, it helps you become a better writer.
I am not forcing you to
self-edit your books if you can afford a professional book editor. I tried
employing an editor to help me with my books. Later, I discovered I was better
than some of these editors.
Some of the editors are
good, but they charge abnormal prices. I CAN THOROUGHLY EDIT AND PROOFREAD MY
BOOKS since I have the Grammarly premium and Pro Writing Aid premium.
I have friends willing to
help proofread my books, but I found out that they are not committed and ready,
so I have to sacrifice my time to do it myself. There is nothing in this world;
you cannot do if you are purposeful. I recommend my books.
1. How to Pursue a
Purposeful Life Without Money
2. How to Pursue a
Purposeful Life and
3. How to Make Perfect
Decisions.
All you need is faith.
Believe you can do it, and God will give you the grace to write the book He is
calling you to write. At the initial stage, you may start on your own. As time
passes, you will get some people to help you with your book (s).
Sometimes, you will be
discouraged; don’t give up. Believe God and press on. Your loved ones may not
support you. Don’t give up; press on. Some loved ones and enemies will
destructively criticize you; don’t give them attention because they will
distract your focus. If you are determined to write the book, you will finish.
If you want to write
books, sacrifice your bed, movies, games, pleasure, and social gatherings. Be
focused because time waits for no man. You lose if you spend too much time on
social media doing unnecessary things.
Use time effectively. The
body may fight you at the initial stage. Don’t allow the temporal desires of
the body to limit you; press on, and your body and mind will adjust to your
routines.
Believe that people will
read and buy your book (s). If you allow the Spirit of Inferiority to dominate
you, you will become depressed and give up.
Get my book “How to Break
the Spirit of Inferiority” for a more profound revelation. When you have faith,
it boosts your creativity and makes you purposeful. This is one of my secrets.
• Believe that God can use you to change the
lives of others through your books and articles.
• Believe that God has called you to write.
• Believe that you are relevant in life.
Don’t allow your color,
country, resource, and family to limit you. See yourself as God sees you and
put your thoughts into words; you will be surprised that your book will change
the lives of many.
Watch Videos
To be an excellent
writer, watch a documentary and important videos. Watch videos connected to the
book you want to write. For example, if you're going to write Christian books,
listen to the sermons of your spiritual leader and different anointed ministers
of God.
The more videos you
watch, the higher you increase in knowledge. I often listen to sermons because they
build me in wisdom and knowledge. Listen to the videos of your mentors. When
you build capacity in this field, you will not struggle to write outstanding
books.
Inner Power
This is for my Christian
friends who want to write books. Build a consistent prayer life if you're going
to write a book that can transform people's lives. Almost all my books came
through prayer. The more I prayed in tongues, the more the Holy Spirit gave me
the ideas.

How
I Wrote Over 40 Books and Over 400 Articles Within 3 Years
My
Top 14 Writing Principles
In this book, I will
briefly share the top fourteen principles I used in writing and publishing my
books. These principles will prepare you to become an excellent and faster
writer. They are not just theories; they are my own principles, skills, and
experiences.
No matter the season you
find yourself in or the type of book you want to write, applying the wisdom
keys in this book will make you an excellent and faster writer. While this book
is primarily for Christian writers, many of the principles can be applied
regardless of your writing genre. Below are my top fourteen principles of
writing and publishing.
1. You must be born again
if you want to write inspired books and articles.
Writing Christian books
and articles requires a level of spiritual inspiration that comes from being
born again. Repenting and confessing Christ Jesus as the Savior and Lord of
your life allows the Holy Spirit to guide your writing.
2. Build a consistent
prayer and fasting life.
Prayer and fasting help
you connect with the voice and gifts of the Holy Spirit, who can inspire your
writing. Make prayer and fasting a regular part of your writing routine.
3. Consistently feed on
the Word of God.
Reading the Bible and
studying the Scriptures will give you ideas and inspiration for your writing.
Find a quiet place where you can study the Word of God and write down any ideas
that come to you during this time.
4. Follow the process.
Start small and gradually build your writing journey.
Begin by writing in
journals, electronic devices, and social media platforms. Don't rush or skip
steps, as following the process will lead to long-term success.
5. Occasionally encourage
yourself.
Writing can be
challenging at times, so it's important to encourage yourself and celebrate
your progress. Celebrate each milestone and keep the momentum going.
6. Build a strong system.
Create a recognized system for your writing journey.
Use blogging platforms,
social media handles, and other online tools to connect with your readers and
build a following.
7. Write down ideas as
soon as they come to you.
Ideas are the foundations
of your writing journey, so don't waste them. Carry a notebook or use your
smartphone to jot down ideas as soon as they enter your mind.
8. Invest in yourself by
reading books and articles related to your writing genre.
Learn from successful
authors in your field and expand your knowledge to become a better writer.
9. Eliminate barriers
that hinder your progress
Prioritize your writing
and eliminate distractions that take away from your writing time. Focus on what
truly matters for your writing journey.
10. Build an inner value
and overcome any feelings of inferiority.
Believe in yourself and
the impact your writing can have. Don't let negative thoughts or criticisms
hold you back.
11. Gather adequate
knowledge by learning from successful people in your field.
Read their biographies,
articles, and listen to their messages to gain insights and inspiration.
12. Learn how to use
technology to enhance your writing.
Familiarize yourself with
tools like Microsoft Office and Grammarly to improve your writing skills and
efficiency.
13. Type and edit your
own work.
Take ownership of your
writing by typing and editing your articles and books. This will help you
improve your writing speed and add value to your work.
14. Be sacrificial,
consistent, and disciplined.
Writing requires
dedication and perseverance. Sacrifice other activities if necessary, be
consistent in your writing routine, and maintain discipline in following
through with your goals.
By applying these
principles, you can climb the ladder of excellent writers, bloggers, and
authors. Share this book with others who may benefit from its wisdom. If you
