There are no wrong or right purposes for writing
a book. Your WHY will be unique to you.
Once you’ve established your WHY, let that
purpose help focus your writing. By keeping your
purpose at the forefront of your creative process,
you’ll make the writing process quicker and
smoother than you thought possible.
