Book Storm Writing Method

A unique approach to writing a book quickly through an intensive collaborative session with carefully selected advisors, rather than spreading the work over years.

Core Book Storm Method

  • Gather 5 carefully selected advisors for 1.5 days
  • Host them in a hotel for focused collaboration
  • Create quick concept/draft before the session
  • Use deep intensity over short period vs. light touches over years

Example Implementation (Trevor Ragan's Approach)

  • Selected diverse group of advisors including:
    • Best friend from college
    • Olympic women's volleyball coach
    • Former prison inmate turned wisdom teacher
    • Other selected experts

Benefits

  • Makes more progress in concentrated time
  • Leverages collective wisdom of carefully chosen advisors
  • Avoids the typical 2-year drawn out writing process
  • Creates momentum through intensive focus

Additional Features

  • Combined with "podio book" concept (podcast/audio version)
  • Allows for diverse perspectives and expertise
  • Creates dedicated space for focused creativity
  • Eliminates typical writing procrastination

This method challenges traditional book writing approaches by condensing what typically takes years into an intensive collaborative session, potentially leading to better results through focused effort and diverse input.
