Full content visible, double tap to read brief content.

After a childhood in academia, J. Daniel Sawyer declared his independence by dropping out of high school and setting off on a series of adventures in the bowels of the film industry, the venture capital culture of Silicon Valley, surfing safaris, bohemians, burners, historians, theologians, adventurers, climbers, drug dealers, gangbangers, and inventors bred in him an obsession with staying one step ahead of the future springing uncontrollably out of the past.

To date, this obsession has yielded over thirty books and innumerable short stories, the occasional short film, nearly a dozen podcasts stretching over a decade and a half, and a career creating novels and audiobooks exploring the world through the lens of his own peculiar madness, in the depths of his own private forest in a rural exile, where he uses the quiet to write, walk on the beach, and manage a production company that brings innovative stories to the ears of audiences across the world.

Novelists must be into business

Reviewed in the United States on August 14, 2017

This book tells you how to think about writing stories from a business perspective. You are not working for wages; you are creating assets that you can use to generate income. If you don't sign the contracts that give away all rights or last for the full term of the copyright, one work has the potential to generate income again and again through different licensing agreements. It's actually an investment. I'd recommend it any writer seriously interested in making fiction a career.

Must-read for authors who are new to the business

Reviewed in the United States on June 23, 2016

Great basic advice for writers who are looking to take their passion from hobby to business. It's a fast read, but it will change the way you think about publishing, publishers, agents, your books, and yourself. And if you're an established author, but your career is starting to falter and you're not sure why, you might need the perspective adjustment this book provides, as well.

Dan Sawyer is your personal mentor for every beat of a 30 day process, helping you tell your story, Dan walks you through the basis of your story, then helps you navigate pitfalls, obstacles and challenges you will encounter on the way. A great foundation, well paired with his companion podcast of the same name.

It's well worth my time, and well worth yours! :)

Thought-provoking & insightful

I bought this after listening to the episode on this subject in J Daniel Sawyer's podcast "NaNoWriMo Every Month". I highly recommend this book for any writer interested in trying to make a living (primarily or secondarily) from their fiction or non-fiction writing. He explains his points clearly and in an easy style. I have been an employee for so long that, as he explains, it is difficult to conceive of my writing earning me money in a different way. This book, and his equally excellent podcast, have helped me view my writing in an entirely different way. Thank you, Mr Sawyer, for helping me to completely shift the way I look at my writing. Although I have not yet read any of your fiction, I am certainly a fan of your educational writing about writing - and am spreading the word amongst my writing friends.
