Since I’ve thought about it so long it seemed like a totally obvious thing people should do, but it wasn’t a really widely spread idea. I’d go on to explain how it’s not some weird death wish, but actually just a planned decommissioning of my life.īy the end of the conversation, most people would actually agree that it’s a good idea. It was a concept I started thinking about in high school in order to more accurately plan out my life (how can you know what you want to do, if you don’t know when it will end)?Īs I would tell people I planned to end my life on November 17th, 2067 it would often shock them.

So if a blog post and a book are the exact same thing, then why is making a book supposedly so much more difficult? It’s all the same stuff: Title, image (or book cover), table of contents, the actual contents. Writing a book is the exact same as writing a blog post! When I self published my first book, it struck me that: Sometimes our little monkey brains like to overcomplicate things….especially those mysterious and magical books.
