The book hits Amazon!
Pre-order 100 Days, 100 Grand on Amazon today
A question for you, <<First Name>>:
 Have you ever heard of a Ulysses contract?
It's a useful way of ensuring you reach a goal. You want to lose weight for your wedding, so you order a dress two sizes too small. You want to stop smoking, so you pledge to give £100 to charity every time you light up. You want to save for Christmas, so you save into an account that doesn't allow withdrawals until December.
Unlike New Year's Resolutions, Ulysses contracts work. Because you've enlisted the help of another person: your future self. In a Ulysses contact, the Future You forces the Present You to behave in a certain way . . . or suffer painful consequences ahead. (They get their name from the Greek hero who chained himself to a mast to prevent himself going overboard when the Sirens sang.)
That's why I'm releasing 100 Days, 100 Grand for pre-order today.
 With a successful solo freelancing practice, I felt too little urgency about the publication date. I know the methods work; I've been using them for three years. By releasing the book for purchase, I'm accountable to you now.
You can pre-order 100 Days, 100 Grand (UK Kindle version) on Amazon from today.
Yes, it's got an ISBN and everything (978-0-9927470-3-9). Sample content is being added to the 100 Days site every day this week, so you can see what's inside. (Your card won't be charged until it's actually delivered, obviously.) I'm not kidding myself: there's still work to do, but it's mostly snipping and shaping, not original creative. That's my next 90 days spoken for.
Thank you for bearing with me on this three-year journey. (The pic on the right is the original sketch I made that first all-nighter in 2014.)
Have a terrific December. No prizes for guessing what I'll be doing over the holidays. And don't forget to pre-order.
Chris
