You’re a key part of the community experience, Ishan, bringing your enthusiasm and energy, despite regularly joining calls in the wee hours of your mornings in India! That’s dedication and commitment right there. You’re a shining example for others!

I've done a few online writing courses and just like you, nothing changed my life the way WoP did. It surely feels like a cult. lol. Great to meet you through WoP Ishan!

We are 100% a cult dude.

Great and accurate reflection, Ishan! As you said, if you do the work, the magic meets you half way.

I love how you worded that Karena. I love sentences that use the word "magic" in it. Awesome. Thanks!

Great recap of WoP Ishan! Im so grateful to have connected with so many fellow writers (including you!). Ive also watched some of Davids youtube videos several times. Its crazy how some of them have less than 1000 views...

Thanks Arman! Ya dude; those videos are packed with insights, but very few people have seen them. It just goes to show you how there are just a few people who are playing this internet game...

And you are playing it beautifully!

You too! Thanks buddy :)

Ishan!!! Hi :)

I love everything you wrote in here. And your photo of the hiding squirrel. I had a squirrel encounter the other day, walking through a garden, and the squirrel eyed me, and followed me, and I wasn’t sure if it was a loving or threatening kind of following. But I will be on alert for the wildlife!

Hiya!!

Love the squirrel story. DW, I'm sure it was the loving kind. I am so glad that you are noticing these things :)

Great review of Write of Passage, Ishan! You really captured what makes the course great--not only the content, but the energy, the enthusiasm, and the community.

You said it dude. The energy is what sets this course apart. It is like one big family that cheers each other on. I love it!

Rightful shoutout to David Perell as the WOP Founder, but I can’t get over the efforts of Will Mannon, Dan Sleeman, Michael Dean and the entire WOP support team. From the energizing emails to the super fast, but detailed feedback on our essay drafts. Super impressive!

You're absolutely right Frank. Micheal, Charlotte, Dan, Will, Garret, Matt and everyone else deserves an enormous round of applause. They're outstanding!
