Still living with that book idea in your head?
What if that idea were a book by ... Sunday evening?

What if it were not only DONE but FUN?

In this breakthrough book, you'll discover:

  1. How to put aside the mountain you're up against--and climb the hill first.
  2. How tiny, daily action (the tortoise) wins over the quick fix (the hare).
  3. How to laser focus your idea and remove the fluff.

You might be wondering, "Wait a minute here. How am I going to get my 317-page masterpiece done by Sunday?"

Answer: you're not.

PRO TIP: in this single weekend, we're going to start, write, and finish a short, focused, "breakthrough" book that will catapult your confidence to the point where then you will have the courage--and clarity--to write that masterpiece.

If you're feeling any of these:

① Overwhelmed
② Scared
③ Lost

Let's turn those into:

Clarity: to know what to do
Courage: to do it
Confidence: to finish

So we're DONE by Sunday and we had FUN.

Don't spend 9 years (like I did) waiting to write your first book, but "Book in a Weekend" now and get it DONE and have FUN!

Easter Egg: There's a secret gift in the chapter titled "Create." If you want to know my not-so-secret wish, it's in the same chapter under the heading "Tell Me What You Really Think."

Lots of "You can do it!" with a heavy splattering of self-promotion.
Not a lot on how to actually write a book in a weekend - unless you go with the suggestion of a one-word book.

A good cheer you on book

Quite possibly the worst AI reader ever. The book is probably decent… From what I could understand of it I did get some ideas but I wonder if the author bothered to listen to the audiobook? It’s painful… please Bradley let’s hear you read it! Even if you have an accent that would make it all the more delightful.

It’s probably a decent audiobook if you can get past the reader

While no I will not be writing a story in a weekend as I’m writing this (Monday, Dec 1st 2025), I will start next weekend. I’ve been filled with so much inspiration that I will get out of the box and start writing. Yes I am a plotter, but as the author expresses, you just have to start, and I believe this book does a great job at explaining how to get started. Thank you!

The humor is top tier!

You won’t get back the minutes of your life that you waste trying to listen to this nonbook. Bunch of AI sounding sentences strung together.
