ANECDOTE

From Blog Post To Book

  • Tanya's book began as a blog post for Delivering Happiness that resonated widely in 2015.
  • She later expanded and organized those ideas into a full book in 2020 during a three-month writing sprint.
ADVICE

Repurpose Content And Use Deadlines

  • Repurpose older writing and fill gaps with new material to speed book creation.
  • Set a firm deadline or sprint (Tanya used a three-month summer sprint) to finish the manuscript.
ADVICE

Validate With Pre-Sales

  • Self-publish quickly if you want speed and control; pre-sell to validate demand.
  • Tanya pre-sold 90 copies on Gumroad at $26 with minimal promotion to confirm buyers existed.
