If you’re reading this, I’m assuming you already have some goals: fitness goals, goals for your family, maybe even a goal of writing a book or to become a better writer.
But how do you write goals that actually work, that actually help you accomplish the things that you set out to do?
In this guide, I’ll share the step-by-step goal writing process that I’ve used to finish fifteen books, publish over 2,000 blog posts, hit the Wall Street Journal bestseller’s list, and reach over twenty million people with my writing over the last ten years.
No matter what your goals are, I believe this process will help you get clear on what you want to accomplish this year.

How do good stories end? In tragedy or triumph? With a wedding or a funeral?
That is the question of the denouement, a literary term that means more than just “the end.”
This article is all about denouement. In it, we will talk about the origin and definition of the literary term, give examples, and talk about where it fits in your writing.

How do you tell a story? Not how do you construct a story, or how do you structure and plot a story? How do you tell a story?
When I think about storytelling at its most basic, I think about our earliest ancestors, sitting around a campfire, sharing stories about their lives, the adventures they’ve been part of, and the history of their people.
This is what narrative devices are about, how you tell the story, and if you’re a writer, the method and perspective of your storytelling is something you must consider.
In this article, we’re going to talk about narrative devices, what they are, the different types found in the best books, plays, films, and serials, and how to use them to tell a powerful story.

We’re coming up to the end of the year, so I’m wondering: what books have you enjoyed the most this year?
I asked that to members of our writing community, and got dozens of amazing book recommendations that I need to add to my reading list. So I thought I would share some of the highlights with you, as well as my own personal favorite books I read in this last year.
But what about you, dear reader? What are your favorite books from 2024?
