How not to come up with your book title

So you’ve got this great book title in your head and you’re really excited about it. It wakes you from your dreams and you can’t help but smile while appreciating just how amazing it is.

Here’s the thing, though: That title that’s got you so enamoured won’t be the one you end up using with your book. 

Why? Because if you don’t even know what the book content will become, how can you possibly accurately name the thing?

In this episode of The AUTHORity Show I’ll give you a quick pep talk on how having your book title in place before writing can be both good and bad for you. 

I’ll also give you a tidbit of advice on what will determine the final title of your book — after it’s written.
