Acerca de esta escucha
Have you always been a terrible writer? Have you spent months or years trying to write a book, with continued failure?
Are you stuck in the vicious cycle of sucking at writing?
Or maybe you've been thinking of writing a book for quite some time now, and you just don't know how to get started. The whole process seems overwhelming.
This conversational and action-oriented audiobook is for people who want to write a book (or are thinking about it), but for their whole life, have never been good at writing.
There are tons of myths, misconceptions, and flat-out lies out there about how difficult it is to write your first book.
How to Not SUCK at Writing Your First Book busts those myths and challenges everything you've been told about writing.
This audiobook is filled with proven solutions, options, and problem-solving methods that every first-time author needs to know - no matter what writing challenges you face.
How to Not SUCK at Writing Your First Book gives you the foundation for your first book through:
- Four tried-and-true writing methods that make the writing process simple, easy & fast
- A writing method that involves zero actual writing (your book can be done in as little as seven hours)
- Simple strategies for preventing & defeating writer's block
- Uncovering the #1 way to actually finish and publish your book (hint: it has nothing to do with writing)
- Shows you how simple and fast writing a book can actually be (by holding your hand every step of the way).
Follow the advice given in this audiobook and by the end, after putting what I have to say into action, you will have easily written a high-quality book.
Best of all, the rest of your life doesn't have to be put on hold to do it either!
I have one last question for you:
What's stopping you from turning your daily conversations and knowledge into a high-quality book faster than you ever thought possible?

Learning how to write a book is easy. Learning how to write a book that doesn't suck and can actually make you money - and set you up for a full-time writing career is harder.
But it's nowhere near impossible. And it's far more doable than you can imagine. The trouble is, most books offering tips on how to write a book fail to address two key considersations: 1) Most self-published nonfiction books suck. 2) It's almost impossible to make a living from one self-published nonfiction book.

Do you want to successfully self-publish in eBook, print, or audiobook formats? There are thousands of new books being published every day, but many self-published books quickly sink to the bottom of the pile. Many authors are frustrated because there are so many options for self-publishing, and they don't know which one to choose or what will be best for their book. Others spend thousands of dollars to publish and end up brokenhearted with the result. But it doesn't have to be this way.

Historia
“Long live the King” hailed Entertainment Weekly upon publication of Stephen King’s On Writing. Part memoir, part master class by one of the bestselling authors of all time, this superb volume is a revealing and practical view of the writer’s craft, comprising the basic tools of the trade every writer must have. King’s advice is grounded in his vivid memories from childhood through his emergence as a writer, from his struggling early career to his widely reported, near-fatal accident in 1999—and how the inextricable link between writing and living spurred his recovery.

How do master storytellers compel us? There have been many attempts to understand what makes a good story, but few have used a scientific approach. In The Science of Storytelling, Will Storr applies dazzling psychological research and cutting-edge neuroscience to our myths and archetypes to show how we can tell better stories, revealing, among other things, how storytellers - and also our brains - create worlds by being attuned to moments of unexpected change.

"Writing is structure,” William Goldman said, but too often aspiring writers plunge into their work without grasping this fundamental principle. Story structure is one of the most important concepts for a writer to understand - and ironically, one of the least frequently taught. In this book, New York Times best-selling author William Bernhardt explains the elements that make stories work, using examples spanning from Gilgamesh to The Hunger Games.

Historia
Years ago, after suffering a humiliatingly large dumb tax, it dawned on me that I have a seemingly unlimited ability to hit unforced errors and sabotage my business and financial success. I suspect you do, too. It turns out that the key to getting rich (and staying that way) is to avoid doing stupid things. I don't need to do more smart things. I just need to make fewer dumb mistakes. The vast majority of our dumb tax is a direct result of emotional, overly optimistic, and poorly thought out decisions.

Great Advice Wrapped in Tin Can Audio
What made the experience of listening to How to Not SUCK at Writing Your First Book the most enjoyable?
It's to the point. The author doesn't waste time with filler. After a reasonable introduction, they get right to the meat and potatoes of the book.
What other book might you compare How to Not SUCK at Writing Your First Book to and why?
The Scriptbully series.
What did you learn from How to Not SUCK at Writing Your First Book that you would use in your daily life?
Pretty much the whole system, hacked to my own personal needs and quirks of course.
Any additional comments?
This book offers great advice, but the audio quality jags on the ear. It sounds like they recorded it in a submarine at a low bit rate. I couldn't tolerate listing to it with my high quality noise-cancelling headphones, so I did it in my car during commutes to and from work. The less defined output of my car speakers (combined with road noise), made the listen a lot better. Worth the credit once I found a way I could tolerate the listen.

Obvious cash grab
Would you try another book from the authors and/or Al Kessel?
No.
What reaction did this book spark in you? Anger, sadness, disappointment?
Disappointment.
Any additional comments?
I did come away with maybe one thought, so I'll say the small amount I paid for it was OK.
"Done is better than perfect.", at least he practices what he preaches.
