If you Google "how to write nonfiction" you'll get a bunch of useless listicles and very few hard and fast rules to writing a great book. That's often because great books are stylistic and personal: they have a strong narrative voice and compelling stories. But if you don't already have a big platform, shooting for a smash hit can be perplexing and demotivating... as you wade through the mire of what you want to say and wrestle with ideas.

Many brilliant leaders or visionaries struggle to finish their nonfiction book, memoir or even a simple "how-to" or "self-help" project because they have too much they want to communicate, and not enough firm boundaries or guidelines that help them limit their content. After working with dozens of high profile book launches, I decided to organize some nonfiction writing tips that I wish I'd learned a whole lot sooner.

In addition to learning some new ways to outline and organize your content, I'll also give you structured tips on how to write a winning preface, introduction and first chapter. We'll cover common writing mistakes to avoid and secrets to mastering writing techniques like "show don't tell." After reading this book, you'll finally have the clarity you need to actually finish and publish your book, without spending any more time spinning your wheels.
