Listen Later

I’m excited to share a conversation on my podcast with an individual who has had a profound impact on my career: Tim Vandehey. =

Tim is a friend and business mentor—not to mention a renowned writer. A freelance writer since 1995, he is an award-winning New

York Times best-selling ghostwriter of more than sixty-five nonfiction books.

In this week’s episode, we talk about why we humans are notoriously awful at finishing projects and what we can do about it. We discuss how we’ve each been able to tackle and complete big projects—you know, like writing dozens of books—and share practical strategies to get things done. Plus, we talk about the business of ghostwriting and share insider tips for writers looking to succeed in the field.
