🚀The Dark Age: The writer you need to be

👋 Hello, friends!

I've been thinking a lot about how challenging writing books can be. How every time I sit down to work on one, I feel like I'm the least qualified person in the world to do so.

Which is why I like this little thing I read recently in Matt Bell's newsletter:

But here's the secret: no one knows how to write the book they're writing, not when they start. I've published nine books and written several more and every one was its own puzzle. There were always times where I pondered quitting or believed that I had ruined whatever material I'd started with.
