Goodreads asked Nader Soubra:

What’s your advice for aspiring writers?

Nader Soubra My advice you must first come up with an idea you truly believe in and want to share it with the world, whether it is life experience, or about work related, or business, no matter what it is, you must envision how it will help people or make them interested, once you figure this out the first step always make an outline for the chapters you want to write, and do use AI, it's not wrong at all, it will help a lot and streamline the process, since the majority of the people are not talented writers, but we all do have a story to share. So once the outline is ready start writing the first draft, and then do multiple revisions and editing, and let your friends and family be a part of it to read and give you advice. Moreover, make sure you make a nice book cover that grabs people attention, and prepare a detailed title for the book to use it once you publish online along with an elaborated description for the book. At the final stage if you want to publish through KDP, make sure you read their guidelines about trims size for ebook, paperback and hardcover, and the formats they require, it can be hectic, but you can always watch youtube tutorials or ask Chat GPT, or even ask their support team. And once your book is published, you need to promote it, you have to try Amazon Ads and the see that will perform, and you need get reviews at least 15, and gradually monitor how the book will perform, it will take some time, between 3 - 6 months. Hope this helps :)
