Just like with Minimal Game, this book will be chock-full of practical and realistic advice. In a nutshell, you'll get my distilled knowledge of years spent partying and pulling girls. I'm quite confident that many of you will find it useful. The feedback from my proofreaders has been highly enthusiastic.
I'll post more updates soon. Once this book is out, I expect to once again have some time for writing articles for my blog, too.
Will someone who has read your old FR's/LR's still get something new out of this book?
ReplyDeleteI'd be very surprised if you didn't.
DeleteThat's quite a dense book!
ReplyDeleteYes, there is a lot of content in the book. In total, it's about 40,000 words, so you can rest assured that I'm not rushing through the material but properly discuss it.
DeleteCount me in as a customer! ;)
ReplyDeleteReally massively looking forward to it…
Btw, I can think of two friends of mine, who'd really need that kind of motivation for the depressive situations they finde themselves in clubs…
Will it be on kindle? Do you have an estimate when it'll be out?
ReplyDeleteI can't give you an exact date yet. November seem likely, though. I'll make an announcement once the book is available. The initial release will be in paperback format, but eventually --- don't ask me about an estimated date yet --- I'll release it on Kindle, too.
ReplyDeleteLooks good. Alek how come you don't blog anymore? There are still plenty of scams that women/pua's use that need to be busted.
ReplyDeleteI can't speak for Alek, but my best bet has to do with life and priorities. It's easy for people on the side lines to clamour for more free content, but try writing a book or maintaining a blog in your spare time, and you'll notice that none of it just happens all by itself.
DeleteYou know how I know that most of the prominent PUA and manosphere bloggers have no life? I once made this point about Roissy...
Delete- Because of the following...
- When I was a prolific blogger, debunker, commentator, my social life was cut by 80%, I had 0% business growth, and my sex life was probably cut by half.
SO I had those losses in business, social life and sex life... YET (get this!) ...
- I only commented on 2-3 blogs (this and another 2)...
- Only made like 2-4 posts a week
- I ONLY RANTED stuff out (no editing, no polishing)
And yet there were not enough hours in the day to grow my business, and have the social life and sex life... (I did maintain my biggest passion, a discipline I train in and invest 4-6 hours a day into, as a competitor)
NOW, look at someone like Roissy who posted 10x more often, and these were meticolously edited pieces and he hand-moderated hundreds of comments and replied to hundreds a day.
Unless blogging and going out are literally his only two activities in life besides his dayjob, it's IMPOSSIBLE that he has any "above average success with women"...
Because no matter how good you are, it still takes time.
Right now
- I'm growing a few businesses
- I'm an instructor/teacher in a field where I'm hoping to revolutionize the field through new teaching methods
- I'm a competitor in a discipline and I have world-level ambitions, at least I train to world-class level
I wish I could squeeze in debunking activities in it, which I'm really passionate about... I'd have to cut out one of my primary goals though, it's like asking me to cut off an arm or a leg.
Ok, I exaggerated slightly. I did have some business growth, it wasn't zero and it was probably better than the average business... and I only cut my social life by half, not 80-90%... And even with that "half the sex life" I was doing much better than most guys (including most PUAs)... But I have so much higher goals for myself in all of these areas...
DeleteI don't compare myself to the average man. So while I was doing much better than the average guy (4x better for example), I still felt like crap coz I knew that I can do 20-30x better, and I was sacrificing that opportunity for debunking scams online... for free...
It is often a thankless activity - rescuing people from being scammed.
I mean sure I get the occasional thank you message from guys who left the community thanks to me (still to this day I get these 1-2 a month)... But that's it.
(Funny story, one guy somehow tracked me down in real life to thank me for rescuing him from the community cult and "saving his life", no joke).
So I guess its rewarding in some ways, but its just requires too much sacrifice.
What will be the price ?
ReplyDeleteIt will be within the typical price range for paperbacks.
DeleteWhen are you going to write "Nerd's Guide to Getting Girls"? ;)
