How to Write a Self-Help or How-To Book May 6, 2013

Instructor, Andrea Susan Glass will offer an online course beginning May 6, 2013 through the UC San Diego Extension called "How to Write a Self-Help or How-To Book." Owner of WritersWay and The Ebook Academy, Andrea is a ghostwriter, copyeditor, instructor, and winner of the San Diego Book Awards for the best how to book in 2001. A self-help author can offer advice in the areas of health, finance, business, spirituality, or personal growth. A how-to author can write on any topic of expertise such as teaching how to choose wine, grow organically, build furniture, play the guitar, or maintain a car’s engine. This course is limited in size and offers personalized help starting with a questionnaire to begin the focus and a method to select the best ideas. Students will write an outline for their book, begin to gather content, start the writing process, and set a writing schedule for support and accountability to finish the book.
