Another review aptly said this book's title is clickbait. The author is playing fast and loose with a LOT of numbers here. His "book" is 20-25k non-fiction, and his "writing" is sending audio recordings through dictation software. But even then, he's fudging numbers because if you charitably assume the faster end of the speaking spectrum, 150 wpm, in two hours you haven't even hit the minimum 20k. You'll be 2k shy at 18k, two hours into your dictation. Close, but not quite.
He puts fiction at "six hours." Now, that number is a little closer, if you're writing 50k novels. You'll have an extra 4k of wiggle room with six hours of dictation. But if you're not writing shorter fiction, then you're fresh out of luck.
Because he dictates his books, he ends up leaving a lot of the fluff and meandering of his conversational tone in the book. That might be fine for some, but in such a short book that is supposed to be instructional, I found myself slogging through even the shortest sections.
Half the book is not so subtle advertising for his affiliate links. I can appreciate the side hustle in the freebie, but it really stank to read.
As for information, his modular idea (outsourcing everything you can to focus on content creation) is reasonable, but he could've spent more time showing all the various methods he's claimed to have tried, rather than repeating "I've tried so many different methods over the years" over and over to add to the word count and fill pages.
Cheap content is a dime a dozen. You might make a dime, but your readers will remember what they got for what they paid.

Good info on starring and running a writing business. Author suggests ways to write books through dictation and churn them out at a prodigious rate.

I personally wasn't a big fan of this book, or the methods in it. I believe the title is a bit clickbait-y, and the methods are kind of questionable at times. There's also a lot of filler words, and repetition. 2/5 Stars - a questionable book

The author of this book wanted people to try his system of writing and publishing books before giving it a review. Since I'm not sure if I'll ever write a book, I'll submit a review now.
This book details an approach to writing and publishing books by using what the author calls his "conveyor belt" system. He believes in working on multiple books at different phases of development at the same time. Although the system of book publishing is geared toward quantity, it would seem to me that with his techniques, it would not necessarily come at the cost of the quality having to suffer as a result. The techniques also work with both fiction and nonfiction, although he did say that for fiction you should plan on more like 6 hours instead of 2 in writing the book. In the digital market, the trend is very much toward shorter books.
At his creative times, he assembles a long list of book titles and then begins writing outlines for them. In fact, he selected this book from over 50 completed outlines. He then does the research, combines his notes, and assembles what's going to happen in the book; designing any characters, creating the worlds, and the order of chapters.
After that, he believes in dictating rather than typing because it is faster and also believes in outsourcing parts of the process that he can't do as efficiently himself. He's now reached the point where he has an editor who works for him full-time and handles what comes after the dictation. The suggestion is that once you have a successful process going, you can figure what an hour of your time is worth. If you can hire someone for less than that amount to do a task, then you should do so. He also has a full-time designer for book covers, social media graphics and anything else he needs designed. It's all part of the conveyor belt system.
Among other suggestions are dictating to an imaginary audience that is composed of people who are geared toward that particular subject matter and several software tools to streamline certain other processes. There is discussion on other segments of putting a book together such as the foreword or introduction, copyright, table of contents, authors page, book description, etc. Some rules about publishing the book are also given, but the main instruction on publishing is covered in another one of his books.
In my opinion the author covered pretty much every aspect of assembling a book and preparing it for publication. Some of the non-fiction authors that I follow appear to be using this type of system as they push out a lot of content. However, in reading some of their books I would have to say that they are also of good quality. My suggestion is that if you are fairly new to writing books or are considering becoming an author, you may want to give this system some serious thought. If you're going to use it, this is the type of book that you should read through first and then follow it again as you're going through the process.
The book is written in very conversational, easy to understand language and I found the subject matter quite interesting throughout.

Good resource
This book had a lot of unconventional ideas. Not a bad thing, but like even he says doesn't really apply to some fiction.
It was a rich resource for advice on what programs to use for editing, transcribing, and look for outsourcing other things.
Thing is he also said "I hire some elsw to do that for me" a lot. Some of us cant afford to hire someone at this stage in our writing efforts. But like I said the author also tries to give tips on how to get things done with little to no cost and just gives advice on how to upgrade or change how you do things once you find your groove.
He also makea himself available to readers for questions which is nice. Not all authors do that. Some good ideas and looking forward to applying some of them when I'm ready to get back into writing more consistently 👍

As far as running a publishing business where the goal is to spit out as many books as possible in as little amount of time as possible, this book has some ideas. However, it does not really give you much in terms of how to write a book. I was more looking for quality, not simply quantity quickly. The author instructs how to dictate a book into software that turns your spoken words into a written format, but not a lot of detail. This is great advice to those with visual challenges, a wonderful way to help them realize their dream of being an author. But it was not what I was looking for. The book is not really "written," it is more like you're sitting in a room and this guy is lecturing you and giving a sales pitch for himself. I wasn't a fan of the style.

I'm not a writer, but I have put together several collections of my family's history for my kids. I'm not interested in publishing for profit. BUT, I'm sure glad I stumbled over this. My biggest challenge is organizing all of the information and pictures. I use a program named "Blurb" that I like for the publishing, but like most good tools, it can't make up for the user's lack of skill.
I've been working on my latest book and my only real progress has been to raise my frustration level.
now, I'm anxious to get back to it. It won't be a "toss every thing out and start over" but rather a "OK, research is done so let's go".
Thanks for your guidance and advice.

Peut-on parler de pute à clic pour un titre de livre ?
La réponse est indéniablement OUI et ce livre de Jonathan Green en est une belle preuve.
Dans ce gros ramassis de conneries, le pire n'est pas la liste longue comme le bras de conseils foireux que propose l'auteur (en gros, laisse tomber le clavier et utilise un logiciel de dictée) mais bien la prouesse de nous convaincre, en 60 pages, que l'auteur est un connard fini qui croit détenir le savoir sacré qu'il daigne nous transmettre, à nous, pauvres mortels. Sur le deuxième point, succès total. En revanche, si vous comptez trouver une once de conseil d'écriture valable dans ce livre, vous serez déçus.

Jam-packed!
The content is great, and this book is full of freebies. Johnathan does an excellent job of discussing important tools that every author needs, such as dictation and autocorrect software. He encourages his readers to not give up and to break the cycle.
My reading engagement was high throughout the entire book. I did not find a lot of fluff in the material; it contains solid information for authors.
In my opinion, the book cover sucks and does not do this book justice. I wish the author would have invested more money for a superior book cover.
I recommend.

A dictated review
The front of the book seemed a bit padded to me. Further, it seemed to feel dictated, rushed with a simplistic voice. However, it was such a short read that I decided to soldier on. I'm truly glad that I persevered.When the good stuff came, it came hard and fast.The advice was specific, actionable, and logical. I look forward to putting it into practice. Five big stars.

How can you complete a book in two hours?
As a writer, I wanted to learn how to write fast in a short amount of time. That is why I got this book for free. So far, it is very useful and explains how the author completes his books in two hours. The rest is pretty much the same on how to get your book published. You will not get a lot of advice in this book, but I recommend it, if you just want one tip to write faster. Enjoy!

Great Book with resources and general information
It is a quick read and provided great insights on writing and publishing more. I had heard a lot about dictation before reading this book, but while reading this book I actually gave it a try. I wrote one 4,500 word book in less than two hours, which is a huge improvement for my personal writing speed. I’m going to try now and write a longer book using this method.

Quick and full of actionable info
This book is probably the fifth book I have read of his. I used this book which took me an airplane ride from Boston to Austin to read (3 hours for those playing) to read. I used his strategies from this book and 20k to write my first 6 books this year in two months. I am now turning out a book a week and building my publishing empire. Thanks Jon

Very Informative
This book was very informative, and will definitely benefit me as I pursue writing more books. The only negative to mention is that I feel the title mislead me a bit. I thought The whole book focused on the actual writing process, and not the end processes of formatting and publishing. Nevertheless, I enjoyed it, and will put it to good use

Not for anyone who takes their work seriously or cares about the quality of their output. The author simply suggests you spit your content out into a dictation program and then hand it off to someone who can clean it up on the cheap. It reads like a product of the author's advice: shallow, redundant, and full of its own hype.

An really exceptional book!
Wow... That is what I need to say after reading his book. In this book was all I need to finish and publish my first book. It answered many questions I had that I don't need to deal with the right answers until I get experience and time. Thanks for answering them and giving me a clear direction! Kudos to Mr. Green.

This is a useful book. The premise is clear: you can organize the book production process into a series of modules. The first two consist of research and outlining, the second, dictating.
The author explains his setup. Could work for some.

A Different Approach
Clearly, Jonathan is passionate about his approach to the book conveyer belt writing process. I have read of other approaches suggesting far less outsourcing. I guess the aim of the game is to find out what works and is infinitely sustainable.

Good read
I was worried this book would serve up regurgitated remnants of get rich quick schemes, but I learned a lot about the dictation process of writing that I'll have to try. Thank you!

Excellent tips
I enjoyed many of the tips and implemented some of them immediately. His parts on dictation alone were helpful. This is an excellent resource for writers of all stripes.

Strongly recommended, especially the conveyed belt concept, has merged the project management with the creative process from the idea's birth to the reader, and till the last page of the book.

Some great advice.
Really interesting insights into the process of writing work for publication. Leans more towards nonfiction, written solely for profit but still a great source of advice and guidance.

Great
Really excellent discussion of a simple self-publishing process that can be completed quickly. It seems self evident, but I don't think I would have thought of dictating.
