Just a quick note to let you know we’re taking a short break from our daily episodes. Over the next month, I’ll be finishing the second draft of the Daily Writer book that releases on November 1st, and I’ll also be making several major improvements to our Daily Writer Club as well as my main website, KentSanders.net. When the podcast returns on August 15th, we will be featuring not one, but TWO weekly interviews with amazing writers and creatives. In addition, we’ll be continuing our several-month-long series on The Writer’s Path, which is a framework for building a writing-based business. In the meantime, I encourage you to go back over the last year’s episodes and listen to the ones you haven’t caught yet… or better yet, re-listen to them because you often catch things the second or third time that you didn’t catch the first. As always, I appreciate you listening and I look forward to returning on August 15th. *** Check out my NEW book: 18 Words to Live By: A Father’s Wisdom on What Matters Most.

Today, I want to share three writers who are great examples of what we’ve been talking about in this series. Each of them has a clear message for a specific audience, they use multiple platforms to share their content, they create content consistently (including multiple books), they have been expanding their network for years, and they have used their writing and books as a basis for building multiple streams of income. On this episode, you’ll be encouraged by three examples of successful writers who utilize multiple streams of income to build and grow their businesses. *** Check out my NEW book: 18 Words to Live By: A Father’s Wisdom on What Matters Most.

We’ve spent the last couple of weeks talking about several milestones in The Writer’s Path. I want to emphasize again that these are not necessarily sequential in the sense that you can’t move on to the next one until the current one is completed. Rather, these are all just pieces of the larger puzzle of a writing business, and you will continually refine them as you go along. Today I want to share three primary benefits of approaching your writing business in the way I’ve suggested, using The Writer’s Path: On this episode, you’ll discover three key ways that The Writer’s Path transforms your business and your life. *** Check out my NEW book: 18 Words to Live By: A Father’s Wisdom on What Matters Most.

Now we’ve come to the final milestone in The Writer’s Path, which is simply this: Practice key habits for wellness, productivity, and success. Why it’s important: Without key habits, you will burn out or have some sort of a train wreck. I have seen it too many times in my life. I have even seen it the last few years with some writers and entrepreneurs I know who got very successful, then they crashed and burned in their personal lives. On this episode, Kent shares why it’s vital to create habits that increase your physical, emotional, mental, and relational health and help you strengthen your relationships. *** Check out my NEW book: 18 Words to Live By: A Father’s Wisdom on What Matters Most.

So far, we have talked about getting clear on your message and audience, choosing your platforms, writing consistently, publishing books, and expanding your network. Once you have those in place, then you are ready to take advantage of Milestone #6: Create streams of income based on your writing and services. Why it’s important: All of the successful writers I know personally have multiple streams of income. This mitigates risk and lets you grow several streams that can support you. They are also intertwined, and if you think like a business owner, you can always create new streams.  On this episode, Kent shares why creating multiple streams of income is key to your success and how you can maximize your client work and your IP. *** Check out my NEW book: 18 Words to Live By: A Father’s Wisdom on What Matters Most.

We’ve talked about several steps in the Writer’s Path, and today we’ll focus on Milestone #5: Expanding your networking of friends, fans, and connections. Why it’s important: One of the biggest things that holds back great writers is not knowing how to network and build relationships. I have learned a lot from Vincent Pugliese in this regard. He leads the Total Life Freedom community and mastermind, and he’s recently released a fantastic book called The Wealth of Connection, which I highly recommend. It will help you develop a mindset of networking and building relationships. On this episode, you’ll discover that one of the most valuable things you can do for your writing business—and your well-being—is connecting with others and expanding your network. *** Check out my NEW book: 18 Words to Live By: A Father’s Wisdom on What Matters Most.
