This week, I share the backstory of Nonfiction Book School, my new, live book-writing program for aspiring authors. But it’s not just a 411 on the program—it’s a story. A tale about sticking with your dreams, even when your vision seems hard and far and maybe even overly aspirational. I hope this story inspires you to stick with your dreams too.
