I'm back again, with another solo episode! I've been getting emails from readers and podcast listeners asking me questions about writing their own books. With some of the people I sense a little hesitance—“Is my story worth telling?” I suspect they might be asking themselves. My answer: “Yes, it absolutely is.”
I went through the same process when I worked on my first walking book, Alone on the South Downs Way, which just became available in its second edition. Despite the fact that I enjoy reading books about other people's walking adventures, I wondered if my story was actually worth telling. Thankfully, I did. Then I went on to write three more books about my walking long-distance trails. Next year, I hope to update my book on The Ridgeway, in the same way that I updated my South Downs Way book this year.
