Whoa! It looks like it’s been close to TEN YEARS since I last posted.
I know it’s not “Thirsty Thursday”, but this couldn’t wait…
Yesterday, I took a big step. I started the process of writing “Crazy Liquor Laws: It’s Enough to Drive You to Drink!”… the book. As I said in my Welcome post, “For years I’ve been saying, ‘I need to write a book about this stuff!'” Well, I think it’s now time to REALLY get started. Yesterday, with the help of ChatGPT, I started organizing everything I need to write a book.
I had ChatGPT create:
- Cover art
- Table of Contents
- Chapter Outlines
- A Book Proposal Outline
- A Self-Publishing Plan (Including an Estimated Budget)
- A list of book writing tools
- A Visual Style Guide
- A project schedule and timeline
- A Notion database to track all of the crazy laws
- A fundraising plan for Kickstarter and Buy Me a Coffee
- An Email launch sequence and press kit
- Ideas for Facebook, Instagram, and X
ChatGPT has been a HUGE help. I’m already using it to research details on some of the laws that I’ve already written about here. It has pulled all of my posts from this blog into our database and made a first cut at placing each in the proposed chapter outline. We will be redesigning this site to reflect the graphic design of the book.
Here’s to a full-bodied adventure—bold at the start, a little nutty in the middle, and a smooth finish that sneaks up on you!
