Something that I can tell you now probably because of Scribe and how great an experience it was for me, I am crazily thinking about writing a second book… that is, if I can give a testament to Scribe, there’s no way, if the process wasn’t anything but great, that I would say I want to do this again.

You really have to think about authorship in a decade's game, not a year's game. I'm in my second decade. I'm sure the third decade will be even better because you've built a great reputation over time.

When you write a really good human book, people notice. People can tell that this is something different here. And people are going to crave that human touch more and more. The more you can personalize and humanize things, it's actually a great differentiator in increasingly AI-competitive markets.

I expected the actual writing and publishing process to be really hard, but honestly, it was much easier than I thought it would be. They gave me hands-on guidance every step of the way, and I just followed the process.
