Steven Pressfield, best known for writing The Legend of Bagger Vance and a few excellent books on doing professional knowledge work, is easily one of the best resources of creative inspiration around in my book (see what I did there?). Can't say enough great things about the guy.
Which is why I'm excited about his upcoming newsletter experiment.
“What makes something ready for the Big Leagues? How long do we have to languish in the minors before we break through? What does it take to get over the hump?
I suspect that no few of the readers of this blog find themselves in that exact same spot.
What’s missing?
What’s the final piece to the puzzle?”
Sounds familiar, doesn't it? If you click through to the newsletter signup page, he goes into more detail on what this project is about (emphasis mine):
“I have a new, long form project that’s about the writing of a first novel; what takes a project from being unpublishable to being publishable. It’s too long to be on the blog, so I’m going to give it with a bunch of other goodies.”
Such advice from Steven is sure to be invaluable, so it was an instant sign-up for me. How about you?
