In this episode, AJ and Mike spill the tea on Introductions, when you need one and when you don’t. Most importantly, they’ll break down what it should contain and what it absolutely should not if you want your readers to keep turning the page! Listeners will also learn when in the writing process an Introduction should be written. (Spoiler: it’s not at the start of the writing process!)

“I do think there’s a huge value in writing an introduction where appropriate, but you first need to decide: will my readers skip it?”
—AJ Harper
“It’s very interesting, the parallel between music and books. You don’t write from start to finish. It doesn’t just reveal itself that way. You start with the essence and build around it.”
—Mike Michalowicz
