A humanist at heart, I believe in kindness, curiosity, and the quiet power of empathy. You’ll find me debating ethics over coffee (black, no sugar) or sketching

The death of prescriptive nonfiction books, at least as a mass-market information business, is nigh. Sure, there will be temporary outliers, but the trend line points in one direction. The question for every writer, podcaster, and creator isn’t whether the interface shift comes for your format. It’s what you’ll do once it does. As always, I think it’s good to try and dig your wells before you’re dry. So how do you do that while the sands are shifting under your feet? Perhaps it’s a return to basics: 1) Find your 1,000 True Fans. If you started off doing this well but have meandered, it’s time to revisit. Get very clear on who those 1,000 people are. 2) Surprise and delight them. Overdeliver again and again. 3) Success! Could it really be that simple? And could it really be that hard? The riptides pulling in the opposite direction are absurdly strong—algo chasing, incentives to create clickbait, bot-assisted “engagement,” and more. AI personalization will make these siren songs 100x more seductive. But in the end – Could there really be any other choice? I’m tying myself to the mast of long-form, but maybe I’m delusional or otherwise high on my own supply. Only time will tell, and that time is coming soon.
