Must. Write. Second. Book.

Must. Write. Second. Book.

One month ago i thought i could begin on April Fools Day 2016 and accomplish two ambitious goals:

  1. Begin and finish the second book’s storyboard
  2. Get the first draft edited and have it be ready for formatting.

One out of two ain’t bad.

On April Fool’s Day 2009, jeff noel began writing five daily, differently-themed blogs (on five different sites). It was to be a 100-day self-imposed “writer’s bootcamp”, in preparation for writing his first book. He hasn’t missed a single day since.

Today, April Fools Day 2016 something remarkable happens.

An epic writing challenge begins.

It’s even bigger than the original 2009 self-imposed 100-day writer’s bootcamp – to write five daily, differently-themed posts every single day for 100 days win a row.

Do i have to stop because i’m going to start?

The thought of not writing five daily, differently-themed blog posts every morning is feeling pretty scary.

Do i have to stop blogging because i’m going to start writing a Disney Leadership book?

Seven years later we reach the starting line

Life has a funny way of providing what we need, if we stay with it and ebb and flow like nature.

It is often called wisdom.

Seven years later we reach the starting line.

April Fools Day is almost here.

  • 100% certain i will continue to devote a minimum two hours a day to writing
  • 93% (a made up number) sure writing will focus on a book(s)

Perhaps the 100-day blog surplus, which evolved over several years, was divinely created to offer the opportunity that (probably) commences in 20 days.
