One true sentence of the day #5
Gm #bitcoin family,
It rained heavily today. Like Hailstorm & ferocious wind and all that. The storm even knocked out an electricity tower.
But it did not stop the book.
We kept going on mobile data and a laptop with just enough battery for an 8hr call with my editor as we tried to figure out how to move ahead.
Do we change the style? Do we move from storytelling into essay mode? Do we explain more? Reflect more? Speed up?
Good lord, we were in a limbo. At one point, we even brought in a third-person POV just to help us decide.
In the end, we chose to continue with storytelling.
So far, most chapters are 2 to 3 pages, rarely 4, so the reader can enjoy each chapter like a snack. Small, & flavorful.
Now I need your help.
The book begins with the goal of doing 40 countries in 400 days, but in those 400 days I reached 21 countries.
As a reader, would you continue reading if the mission changes from “40 countries in 400 days” to “I must complete the 40-country promise, no matter how long it takes”?
Or what is it that will make you turn that page ?
Thank you and good day :)
Paco
