Writing a Book to Help Others

Hi friends,

I am looking into writing a book about my real estate investing journey, which includes becoming my husband and I becoming financially free in under 5 years by long-term rentals in multifamily and SFH, and syndication. Most recently, my last acquisition has been purchased for my unborn daughter. Has anyone ever gone down the path of writing a book to help others? Looking for any resources and insight on how to start this process. Thanks in advanced for your help!

Hi @Allison Mackin, I wrote a chapter for a book several years back. I would just say write about 400-600 words without reading it and then go back an modify it as needed. Some people like an outline and I do this after I write. I get it all out and then look for flow. Does one idea flow to the next. I hope this helps, take care!
