So many aspiring authors believe finishing a book is about talent, inspiration, or finding the perfect moment. But the truth is much simpler—and far more empowering. Books get finished because of discipline, structure, and support.

In today’s episode, I break down the three biggest drivers of book completion: consistent writing time, a deep and detailed outline, and accountability. You’ll learn why protecting regular space on your calendar matters more than waiting for inspiration, how a 15–30 page outline becomes the roadmap that carries you past the notorious 20,000-word stall point, and why accountability can increase your chances of finishing your book by up to 95%.

If you’re ready to make 2026 the year you will write your book, this episode is for you.
