Hey there! Today's episode is a big one because we have the legendary Steven Pressfield on the show. If you haven't heard of him, then you're missing out on one of the best books on the creative process ever written - "The War of Art".

In this episode, we cover a lot of ground and talk about many interesting topics, including:

  • How my experience as a copywriter at an ad agency helped me become a better writer
  • Whether you should write fiction or nonfiction first
  • How Steven's experience as a screenplay writer improved his fiction writing
  • What "resistance" is and how to overcome it when writing a book (or any project)
  • Common resistance points when writing a book
  • Whether you should write a novel or a screenplay first (and how to get your book turned into a movie)
  • How Steven stays motivated to keep writing in his 70s

Steven is such a funny and engaging guy, and I had an awesome time chatting with him. Don't miss this interview - check it out and let me know what you think!
