How I Became a Published Author: One Blog at a Timeby, Lori Ann Davis
I started writing blogs about a year and a half ago. My reason for starting a blog was twofold: I wanted to write about healthy relationships, a topic close to my heart, and I wanted to increase awareness and traffic to my website in order to grow my business. I have been a counselor for over 28 years, but this was my first time to have an internet presence with a new practice in a new town. Blogging seemed like a good way to introduce my practice and allow potential clients to see what I had to offer. I am passionate about helping people create more fulfilling relationships, and writing a blog seemed like the perfect way to get my message out to more people. While I got into a rhythm writing for my blog, writing a book never seriously crossed my mind. Friends and colleagues had mentioned the idea in passing over the years, but I did not see myself as a published author.
It was scary enough to start blogging on a regular basis. I knew I had good information that people could benefit from, but I wasn’t sure I could write it in a way they would enjoy. At first, each blog felt like a great accomplishment, and I quickly realized that I actually enjoyed writing my weekly blog.  Soon after, ideas for posts started coming faster than I could keep up with.At the same time, I became a regular guest on a radio show. The blogs and radio show’s topics fed each other, mainly the concept of creating healthy, lasting relationships. It was from this, that ideas about a possible book began to intrigue me. I took a look at my blog posts and realized I had a lot of information, definitely enough to start a book. This concept took root, and I began to write more blog posts specifically focusing on my secrets, thinking about how they would fit into a book.
About six months later, I took the plunge and announced I was writing a book! From there, I made a list of all of the posts I had published and divided them into what I called the 4 secrets to an unstoppable relationship. This is how I came up with my original book outline and how many of my blog posts became chapter titles. As I started organizing the book, I could see areas that were missing, so those became new blog ideas. Before long, I had the beginning of a book. I was amazed at how easy the process was and how quickly it came together using my blog posts to organize the book and my book to write new posts. It was a perfect marriage. 
A year and a half later, I became the published author of, Unmasking Secrets to Unstoppable Relationships: How to Find, Keep and Renew Love and Passion in Your Life. Lori Ann Davis, MA, CRS
