episode 76: Don't write a New York Times best-seller
Some of you already know that I'm writing a new book. Getting Art Done will help you overcome Resistance and bring your work into the world.
I had much of my own Resistance to fight to get this book project underway. I spent three months working on a book proposal, then I failed to get a literary agent.
That was a tough blow, but what really flipped the switch for me was the conversation I had with Seth Godin. You'll be able to hear that entire conversation with Seth next week, so be sure you're subscribed.
