I can guarantee that anyone can write an ebook. Everyone has their own interests which they can talk confidently about in depth and detail. With the amount of people on the internet nowadays, you can guarantee that there will be thousands of others with the same interest as you. Information is a huge bestseller on the internet. Thousands of people are dying to get their hands on a manual or expert guide about your interest. Therefore, there is a huge opportunity for you to spend a little time compiling a guide on your interest and selling it to those who desperately need it. What's even better is the fact that you can write, compile, and publish your ebook with no cost at all. You get to keep all the profits.
With such a great opportunity open to just about everybody with access to the internet, it is hard to imagine why so few people are writing their ebooks right now. Many people think that they don't have the writing finesse to publish a 10-20 page manual on their interest. However, although fluent writers do have an advantage, those who are reading your ebook are reading for the information and not for the quality of writing. Your knowledge and enthusiasm on your interest should shadow any technical writing weaknesses. I believe that the other reason why people are not writing their own ebooks is that they think it is too much effort and isn't worth it. Although ebooks do take time and effort to put together, the rewards are worth it. And don't forget that your ebook doesn't have to be more than 20 pages. Writing ebooks is the closest you can get to 'easy money'.
Deciding what to base your ebook on
Primarily, make sure you base your ebook on something you enjoy discussing. This will make writing about it more enjoyable, more fluent and you will write in a way that will hold your reader's interest. Be confident about your knowledge of your interest too. If you know everything there is to know, your ebook sales will skyrocket and you will become known across the internet as an expert in your field.
Look through other guides of the same subject as yours
Look through other ebooks and books which are about your interest. Look through the information presented and see if you could add additional information or present the information in a different way. This will put you above your competition and could carve a niche for you. If this happens, get ready for serious money.
Researching your subject
Even if you think you know everything about you interest, the truth is, you probably don't. There are always going to be scraps of information which you haven't picked up on, and it could be these scraps that put you above your competition. This is why research is such an important step in creating your own ebook. Your ebook has to answer all the questions that someone reading it might have. If it doesn't, your reader will be disappointed.
Writing your ebook
Write your ebook in a series of chapters. This will make it easy for readers to navigate around your ebook and find the information they need. It will also make it easier for you to write various sections and decide what to include and what not to include. Be constantly checking for spelling mistakes. People don't want to pay for a sloppy ebook and it will give them a poor impression.
