Hey friend,

Note: I'm hosting another free webinar this week on Wednesday, April 1, at noon Central. This time, we'll be discussing how to start and maintain a daily writing habit. Click here to be automatically registered.

So you're stuck at home, wondering what to do with your life right now. Should you consume more media? Share another meme on Instagram? Yell at your dad for touching his face too much?

Nope. It's time to write that book you've always wanted to write.

As an online teacher to writers for the past decade, I have long maintained that writing a book is an important and serious undertaking and not one to be considered lightly.

Writing is hard work, and, no, I don't think everyone should do it. In fact, I recently argued the world doesn't need more books; it needs better books.

That said, there are plenty of reasons to write a book, and now just might be the right time for you to do it.

The world is changing. Whether you think our current crisis is an overblown hoax or the great equalizer of modern society, we can't deny this crisis has suddenly and dramatically altered the state of our lives.

So what do you do? How do you cope? What does healthy and constructive processing of such an experience look like?

Well, you could write about it.

But how do you know it's time that book?

Here are a few reasons to write a book:

And here is the final and most important reason to write a book: Because you can't not write one.


There is something mysterious, even spiritual, about the process of bringing an idea to life through the written word. I believe it is a calling, one that I don't think you can run away from it-at least, not forever.

But before you do that, you'll need to start with a goal that is far simpler than writing a book.

Before you write anything substantial-an article, blog post, manifesto, or even a full-fledged book-you first have to master the daily discipline of writing every day.

That's why I'm hosting a live training later this week on how to start a daily writing habit.
