In this interview with Caryl Westmore on the Write The Book Inside You Podcast, she talks about how to:

  •  Overcome your “inner monsters” by befriending them because they will always pop up during the writing process
  •  Outline your book as the key to writing faster and not waste time (which she learned the hard way by having 30 000 cut from one of her first books)
  •  Write “#noboringbooks   
  • Pay attention to a hooky title, subtitle and chapter headings (which should sparkle and sell a benefit )
  • Reveal some of your own vulnerabilities in a nonfiction book—which she does admirably in her own books, showing how she made mistakes and learned from them
  • Think all things marketing when you write a book. Too many writers write, publish and then think, “now what?”
  • Don’t just deliver content in a nonfiction book—tell stories and have a story arc
  • Pick a title that is memorable—and easy to say (on podcasts)
  • Make sure the subtitle tells who this is for and why they need to read the book
  • Get the url/domain for your book title if you can
  • Turn rejection and setbacks into fuel to succeed better
  • Finish your book. Some people spend five years rewriting their first chapter. Her attitude is—hand it to the professional copy editors and get on with finishing it.


On a personal level, Julie shares why, as an introvert, making YouTube videos suits her perfectly; and some of her best practices for staying healthy and fit for the long game.
