I loved this audiobook because it addressed both the who & what instead of the how. Unfortunately, most people are interested in the how, not the who and what. Therefore, authors write “How To” books in an effort to meet the needs of their customers. Results however come from learning who you need to be or become and what skills will be required. This book discussed both! It identified who you need to become and what skills you will need to write your book in 11 steps. This book delivered on its promise!

This book is all about magnification! Buy it!

Way More Than A How To Book!

Even though this book is short, it has a lot of useful information that can definitely aide you in your writing journal. The Narrator was pleasant and easy to listen to. I definitely will be listening again due to all of the helpful suggestions.

You can start anytime with writing, David started later in life too. And I think one nice example is Sussana Clarke with her Jonathan Strange & Mr Norrell. As with almos everything, the key is to start a then be consitent (usually through little chunks). David accuratelly describes that brain reward for having a plan (to write a book here), but actually not starting anything, because it requires effort and investment, which hurts sort of and not doing anything is rewarding too. Anticipation of something can sometime bring more reward than hardships of the actual work, but thanks to it we dont start anything at all (in this case we dont write a book, but that this guide is actually about anything creative and actually about whole life too). Overall nice and comprehensive set of tools & tips.
The audiobook is a bit short for the prince and hence it is free available online, but I like somewhat tip this author.

You need the heart to start...

Kadavy writes clearly and eloquently. The advice is as insightful as it is practical. If you’re interested in writing a book, and the perceived magnitude of the whole thing has frozen you into inaction, then let this book thaw you out in under 60 minutes.

I bought this book and listened to it on Audible. I LOVED IT!!! Kadavy breaks everything down into simple, bite-sized, VERY DOABLE pieces. He has a great speaking voice and is very easy to listen to. It's short (under an hour), but has a lot of great information. It was so helpful that I'm going to listen at least a second time...and then start writing MY book!
