writers block

Do you recognize yourself here?

  • Do you have a message that could benefit a much wider audience than your own circle?
  • Do you need to write to build your professional brand, but you’d rather do almost anything else?
  • Do you keep promising yourself to write, but never quite get around to it?
  • Do you delete almost as many words as you write?
  • Do you write pieces that never get shared?

If you answered “Yes” to any of these questions, this book can help you.

Do you want to write well and enjoy doing it?

Nobody is born knowing how to write. Writing is a skill that improves with deliberate practice and paying attention. With growing skill often comes heightened enjoyment.

Nobody is born knowing how to write. Writing is a skill that improves with deliberate practice and paying attention. With growing skill often comes heightened enjoyment.

But how do you build the skill?

Everybody is different. I recommend that you address your writing with an experimental mindset, trying different approaches in search of the ones that work for you. To aid your search, this book describes 55 experiments for shaping practice.
