Write Your Bipolar Disorder Self Help Book!

Tips for writing a book to help others manage bipolar disorder:

Want to get your wit, tips and wisdom on the page? Here is my strategy for writers who want to create self help books that stay in print for decades:

1. Here’s who I am.

2. Here’s what I’ve been through.

3. Here’s the problem.

4. Here’s how I solved it.

5. Here’s how I’m going to help you do the same.

This is a great way to start a self help book. One of my writing secrets is that I outline my books as I write. I have a structure in place before I start the content of the book.  You can use these five sections as an outline and start filling in the sections with your ideas. The book will create itself. All of my self help books including The Health Cards Treatment System for Bipolar Disorder, Get it Done When You’re Depressed, Bipolar Happens!, Take Charge of Bipolar Disorder and Loving Someone with Bipolar Disorder used this process.

Good luck with your writing.

I know you can do it!

  • Hi Julie!

    First of all I just wanted to tell you thank you so much for Get it Done When You’re Depressed. It truly changed how I saw my depression, and I have been so much more productive since reading your book.

    I am currently trying to finish my own memoir, For Better or Bipolar, and was wondering if you ever review books? Is there a way to be a guest blogger on your sites to promote my book?

    I would appreciate any help you could give me.

    Thanks so much.

    Sincerely,

    Taylor K. Arthur
