Hey IH,
Yesterday at 11pm Singapore time I decided it would be fun to write an entire book LIVE in 24 hours.
You can watch me writing it in real time here:

I will also turn on the stream again during the last hours of the writing.
UPDATE: I finished the book on time! Took me 23 hours and 33 minutes to complete. It has 54 pages, 8 chapters, 8185 words, and 41219 characters.

Skimmed through the book and I must say the content looks brilliant. Will read once done
This is a great idea. I've seen live-coding before but I think the constraint concept (you HAVE to finish in 24 hours) is the game-changer.
Quality looks extremely high from what I've read so far.
Not sure I could do this with the eyes of the IH world upon me!
Hey Robin,
Cool! Can you ping me with a reply on this comment once the stream is back up?
Book's looking great so far! Have seen a lot of your posts over the last year, including in FB groups and here on IH, great to see you're putting all those learnings into one book!
Did you prepare a script of what you write or do you just start to type? Because I'm quite impressed :)
I just typed my thoughts during the 24 hours, didn't prepare / copy-paste anything!
Cool, I've read the first few pages. Will continue!
Where would we find out about the stream?
Stream is there: https://www.twitch.com/vinrob92
I started yesterday but this is WAY HARDER than I thought to 1) Think 2) Write 3) Entertain an audience at the same time.
I am writing live on Google Docs but will be turning on the stream again at some point a few hours before the deadline today (11 PM Singapore time on 24 July 2019)
Hah, I like the idea of being able to watch you live via GoogleDocs.

This is great! I’ll read it. The beginning sounds promising
