Several people asked me the same question:
“So… what have you been doing with your time after retirement?”
I smiled and said two things.
First, I’m not retired.
I’m a full-time writer.
I’ve published 14 books, and my 15th is on its way.
Second, I help other people write their books.
They looked impressed.
Said how nice.
And then… moved on.
No one asked what kind of books I write.
No one said they had a book inside them.
No curiosity. No spark.
They were content.
Content with cooking, cleaning, buying more clothes and jewellery.
Content with parties and gossip.
Content with routines that quietly repeat themselves.
And I realised something.
That could have been my life too.
If I hadn’t listened to that stubborn, inconvenient pull to keep learning.
To keep writing.
To keep sharing what I know with others.
Seven years ago, I quit my job.
Since then, I’ve built a life around ideas, words, and purpose.
I’m proud of the books I’ve written.
But I’m even prouder of the people I now help—
people who want their later years to mean something more than just staying busy.
If you feel that pull too…
If you know you have a book inside you…
My March cohort is now open.
In 30 days, you’ll write the first draft of your book using my structured, guided framework.
No guessing.
No drifting.
Just focused on progress with support.
P.S.: Write your book in 30 days here.
Join and write the book you’ll be proud you didn’t ignore.
Because it’s never too late to choose meaning over comfort.
