How to Turn Your Blog Into a Book

Ready to turn your blog posts into a book?

Here's how to take advantage of your huge bank of content and transform it into business fuel + a legacy.

Learn the step-by-step process from me, author and writing coach, Jacqueline Fisch.

If you have …

… a blog

… a consistent posting streak on social media

… a regular newletter

Have you ever considered turning all that writing into a book?

The ultimate in repurposing, by turning your online writing into something that readers can hold in their hands is a smart move that many entrepreneurs tap into.

Nonfiction books create authority, credibility, and visibility.

With a book, you can:

  • 📙 Share your story with people who need it

  • 📒 Use to launch or grow your business

  • 📗 Create a course around

  • 📘 Turn into a legacy

  • 📙 Launch a speaking career

Think of it this way: you've already done the hard work.

Now, it's just a matter of shaping what you've created into something tangible you can hold in your hands.

Something that inspires, motivates, and transforms.

This is all about maximizing what you’ve built and leaving your mark.

What you’ll learn:

✨ How to choose your book topic

✨ A process to review your content and select your best writing

✨ How to approach the writing and editing process

Me? If you’re new here, I’m Jacqueline Fisch, an author and intuitive writing coach.

I’m editing my fourth book, and my blog inspired every single one of my books.

Sometimes, one blog inspires a whole book.

Or, I’ve taken dozens of blog articles and turned them into book chapters (you’ll get to peek at how some blogs from 2012 were repurposed and rewritten for my 2021-published book, Unfussy Life.

Even if you think you might have a book in you someday, thinking about your blog as content that can later turn into a book will help you write intentionally, sharpen your ideas, and grow your audience — all creating a strong foundation from which to write your book.

ACTION STEPS FROM CLASS:

  1. List all your fears about writing a book. It’s helpful to see every fear in front of you to be able to transform it into writing fuel. (More writing prompts on fear in this blog)

  2. Answer the question (journal on it): What am I afraid of happening if I write a book?

At the end of class, I mentioned two ways you could enjoy support while writing your book:

Option 1: High touch with me. Your book writing coach in your back pocket anytime your mind wants to play tricks on you, strategy, planning, writing, AND editing support. Oh, and coaching on your website copy, emails, and biz strategy, too, so you can feel relaxed while writing your book.

Book a chat here.

Option 2: In the community. No fake scarcity with alarms, limited time flashy bonuses, and doors closing. Just straight up writing (and fun!) Some choose to start here and then jump into working together 1:1 once they have some momentum.
Sign up here. You can start learning and writing with us RIGHT AWAY.

I hope this class inspired you that YES, you CAN write a book, your story needs to be shared, and most of all, that you ARE an author.
