I’m writing my next book in public (with AI)
I have a confession.
I’ve been “writing a book about AI” for over a year… mostly in my head and in a slightly tragic Google Doc.
There are outlines.
There are pillars and frameworks.
There are half-finished drafts and messy notes from conversations with founders.
But there hasn’t been urgency.
Or a container.
Or a real deadline.
Meanwhile, people keep asking,
“So… are you writing a book about AI yet?”
My first book, Unboring: Take your Content Marketing from Blah to Brilliant, changed more than my bookshelf.
It changed how I saw myself.
It changed how decision-makers saw me.
It gave me language and frameworks for work I’d been doing instinctively for years.
No, it didn’t make me “book rich”.
But it absolutely filtered in better-fit clients, speaking invitations, and deeper conversations.
It became the pole star for my content.
That’s the level of clarity I’ve wanted for my AI work.
The problem?
Writing about AI can feel pointless when the tools change every other week.
By the time you finish chapter twelve, chapter one feels like ancient history.
So I had to step back and ask a better question: What if the book wasn’t about tools at all?
What if it went underneath the headlines and focused on what actually lasts?
How we think with AI.
How we work with AI as teams, not just lone operators.
How leaders design culture, governance, and guardrails.
How AI shows up in real workflows, politics, risk, and opportunity.
That’s the book I want to write.
And here’s how I’m going to do it.
For the next 30 days, I’m turning my podcast, ‘AI Literacy for Entrepreneurs’, into a thinking lab for this book.
Every day, I’ll publish one episode.
Some will be solo reflections.
Some will be teaching.
Some will be conversations with leaders, practitioners, futurists, and ethics builders.
Behind the scenes, I’ll use AI to:
Help me outline my thoughts.
Process transcripts.
Spot patterns and structure potential chapters.
The ideas still come from lived experience and real questions.
AI helps with the heavy lifting, like a very nerdy sous-chef.
If you listen in real time, you’ll literally hear this book being built from scratch.
If you find the episodes later, you might be holding the finished book in your hands and reading this story as the epilogue.
👉 Here’s your next step
Listen to the Pilot episode of the “Podcast to Book with AI” challenge.
And if you lead a team and want to turn your own expertise into a book or body of IP using AI, hit reply and tell me: “I’m curious about podcast to book.”
I’ll share what I’m doing, what’s working, and how you can steal the parts that make sense for your world as well as how you can hire me help you.
