Learning from Jesse Barnett

He's been a trim carpenter, a salesman, and a college instructor, but the truth of the matter is that Jesse Barnett is a writer. Devoted husband to Becca and proud father to two amazing kids, Jesse joins Learning to Write so he can share how he discovered his gift for writing and honed that gift into a marketable skill. From his work with John Maxwell, Michael Hyatt, and others, Jesse always brings his unique ability to inspire, encourage, entertain, instruct and uplift to every project because he understands that there's no telling what the reader will need. His passion is to entertain and help people find their way to live a better life, and that passion is reflected in his various projects with his clients as well as the Toolbox he's developed on his personal website. Jesse's advice for writers is straightforward: "Some of the best writing is instinctual--it comes from deep within, so the sooner writers learn to trust themselves, the better their writing will become." You'll definitely want to hear him flesh out some of his other writing principles, and if you've ever entertained the idea of writing as a career, you'll want to hear his story and his insights on how to make that dream come true. You can find Jesse on Twitter and Facebook, as well as at his website, BarnettWrites.com. Jesse also has a fantastic course to help anyone learn how to turn an interview into a powerful essay or book--it's called StoryScribr and you can learn more about it here.
