Say goodbye to writer’s block and say hello to drug-induced fury writing.

Novels from the Song of Ice and Fire’s book series ranged from about 300,000 words to 400,000 words per book. (Imagine writing one in 10 days!)

In 1987, Stephen King wrote three full-length novels. (Imagine getting out four!)

A typical movie-length script is only 22,000 words. (Imagine making a Godfather every day!)

So how do writers like Stephen King or George RR Martin produce at such a prolific rate?

Not like this.

Those 1,000 to 2,000 word-a-day, part-timers pale in comparison to the prolific writer that you can become. That you will become.

If you’re ready to ride the dragon to writing super success, then wish your loved ones farewell and keep reading. Otherwise, start looking for an English teaching job in a local high school, because the future of writing belongs to keyboard berserkers.

What are you drinking?

Let’s start with your morning routine.

Are you waking up late on Sundays, reflecting on the week with a hot cup of Joe? You might as well be dead in a grave.
