Thank you for sharing your book-writing journey Shira. Very informative. I love all of the intention and thought you put into every detail! I recently shared your first book with a friend. She bought it and immediately put your advice into action!

I can't wait to read this new book! Best wishes!!!

When your blog posts inspire me to do more and be more, I know you’ve got a winner! Thank you so much for sharing the process and providing a behind-the-scenes look of your upcoming book and the publication process. Everything was so relatable (I swear, two of those images were exactly the same). I’m looking forward to your new book and am inspired to try your suggestion about writing a “bad first draft”. Thanks Shira!

Aww, this feels so good to hear - and yes, selecting between nearly identical images can be a little crazy making!! x

I look forward to your new book the topics of which I think were suggested by the way you wrote in Minimalista

Absolutely - this is an extension of similar principles but in a whole new context and use-case. Very excited about it and thanks for the support! x

I'm very excited for your next book! I have the first two already and I find myself referring to them pretty regularly to maintain my enthusiasm and give me a boost of motivation to get my stuff and life free from excess that clutters my brain and life. I'm a real interior design enthusiast and your books are as beautiful as they are helpful!
