In this episode, we'll explore why book length isn't the definitive factor in creating impactful works. Many writers, especially first-timers, are often concerned with word count, but as I'll explain, it's the strategic approach to book size that truly matters. Whether you're penning a thought leadership piece or a comprehensive guide, your book's length should cater to your readers' needs, not arbitrary standards.Join me as I debunk the myths surrounding word count and share my professional guidelines for publishing.
