Episode notes

Exploring the significance of storytelling and communication skills, the speakers highlight the role of humor and the crucial first steps in writing. Personal anecdotes of beginning the writing journey are shared, along with insights into developing book ideas through talks and newsletters.

Scott is a cocktail of crass humor, brutal honesty, and millionaire advice. He spent ten years wanting to write a book, and when he finally did, everything he learned could be summed up into two words: Be fearless.

So buckle up — because today, you’re going to learn how to write fearlessly.

In this episode, we break down the nitty-gritty mechanics of fearless writing: how to create intimacy with your reader, how to craft a narrative, how to share bold opinions, how to use humor as a weapon, and most importantly, how to write from conversation. (This is one of our favorite concepts we teach in Write of Passage. Your best ideas don’t come from typing; they come from talking.)

Put simply, Scott is the king of strong opinions, loosely held. And that’s why his writing resonates. If you want to be bold and fearless in your writing, then this episode is for you.
