What our 10,000+ Alumni Shippers are saying...

Alice Lemee

"If you've always wanted to start writing for yourself but came up with every excuse under the sun, Ship 30 for 30 is for you.
‍
I went from thinking I never had the "time" to write to publishing every day. It was a transformational experience and it teaches you more about yourself than you could possibly imagine.
‍
At the end of the challenge, I'd gained 3,000+ Twitter followers. More importantly, I left with a newfound sense of confidence, stronger writing capabilities, and lifelong connections."

Alex Lieberman

I have found Ship 30 for 30 to be a transformative experience. I truly mean that. And it’s such a wild thing. How simple yet how profound this simple act can be.
‍
But I’m left more energized than ever before, more creative, and more clear in thought than ever before.‍
For the first time ever, I feel excited to sit down for 45 minutes, completely uninterrupted, and doing nothing except for think and write.

The constraints you need to finally start writing consistently.

All beginner writers face the same 10 problems:

If you're reading this, chances are one (or more) of these problems are keeping you up at night (and keeping you from writing online).

And chances are, you know you should be writing - which is why you're on this page in the first place.

Whether it's to improve your thinking, accelerate your career trajectory, or help you quit that job you hate, writing is something that's been on your list for a while. ‍

• Distractions
• Over-editing
• Perfectionism
• Procrastination
• Self-confidence
• Generating ideas
• Impostor syndrome
• Writing consistently
• Choosing a platform
• Finding time to write

The accountability you've been missing.

Maybe you've tried writing before. But, time and time again, you fall off. Something comes up. What starts off exciting becomes too difficult. And before you know it, you're back to square one.
‍
But this is because there was no accountability.

‍You tried to start writing on your own, almost doomed from the beginning.
‍
But Ship 30 for 30 solves that problem. You write alongside hundreds of other writers all with the same goal as you: to start writing and publishing consistently.

This creates accountability unlike anything you've ever experienced.

Writing alone is hard
‍
Writing with a community is easy

Demolish your bad writing habits.

There are 3 killers of great writing.

Bad Habit #1: Overthinking

So many talented writers think success is about having the best ideas. It’s not. We have learned the best ideas come as a RESULT of producing a TON of ideas. Which means not overthinking the process.

Bad Habit #2:
Over-editing

Have you ever re-written and edited a piece of work for so long, you started to hate it? This is one of the most common challenges among writers. They spend so long on a piece of writing that by the time they “finish” it, they hate it—and then never end up publishing it as a result.

Bad Habit #3:
Falling out of practice

As soon as you skip a day of writing, it becomes easier the next day to skip again. Skip enough days in a row, and you’ll forget you ever had a daily writing habit in the first place. Getting started (or started “again”) is the HARDEST part for writers.

Stop publishing into the void.  

The biggest mistake early writers make? Publishing weekly blog posts into the void. In the beginning, you think you know what you want to write about, and you think you know what people want to read.
‍
But newsflash: you don't.
‍
With this assumption, early writers enter a sloth-like feedback loop, which makes writing consistently impossible.
‍
Instead, you want to make noise and listen for signal.
By writing 30 essays in 30 days, you work through months worth of ideas. And by leveraging platform algorithms like Twitter, you get immediate feedback on your writing.

Stop lurking.
Start creating.

Let's be honest.

If you're reading this, you know you should be writing online. Since "start writing" found its way onto your to-do list, you've seen dozens of others do it successfully, building audiences, launching businesses, and unlocking new opportunities in the process.

But for some reason or another, you've been putting it off. And it's probably some combination of procrastination, perfectionism, the fear of hitting publish, or thinking you have nothing worth saying.

Luckily, Ship 30 will get you to the other side. From lurker to contributor. From consumer to creator. And once you make the leap, you'll never look back.

No more blinking cursor on a blank page.

If this feeling sounds familiar, you're not alone.

In fact, you're just like the 5,000+ other writers who joined Ship 30 for 30.

‍Well, you're like they used to be.

Because within days of joining Ship 30, the problem goes from having nothing to write about to having too many ideas to write about (which is a good problem to have).

How? Using our Endless Idea Generator.

Publish 30 pieces of written content in 30 days.

Writing weekly blog posts is the worst thing you can do in your first year of writing.
‍
Slaving over a hot keyboard just to publish something that six people (three of which are your family members) will read?
‍
No thanks.
‍
Instead, you should start smaller with Atomic Essays. Short, single ideas expressed in under 250 words. And instead of writing weekly, you should write them daily - every day for 30 days.
‍
During Ship 30 for 30, you'll write 30 Atomic Essays in 30 days, just like this one.

What Alumni Shippers are saying...

Ahoy From Your Ship 30 Captains!

Dickie Bush

Ahoy! I started writing online in January of 2020 - and doing so is by far the best decision I've ever made.

But for the first 9 months, I was spinning my wheels. I followed all of the conventional advice: "write a weekly blog post on your website so you can own your platform, write about only things you want to write about" and all of that other common advice.

The problem? There was no feedback loop. The weekly cadence was too slow to work through all of the ideas in my head. And since barely anyone was reading them, I had no clue what I could improve or what my readers were looking for.

So I needed to try something radically different. If I was going to keep writing, I needed to tighten my feedback loops.

This meant going from publishing 1000-word weekly blog posts to posting short, 250-word posts.

And instead of publishing into the void of my own blog, I would post them on Twitter, where I knew there was aggregated attention.

And so off I went. I challenged myself to write and publish something daily, every day for 30 days. 28 days in, the results were pretty good.

My perfectionism? Squashed. My writing speed? 10x faster. My feedback loops? And damn it felt good to work through the backlog of ideas in my head.

And during my personal 30 day challenge, I grew my audience by over 500%. I made my first dollar on the internet. And I woke up every morning excited to write, publish, and improve.
‍
Turns out there was something to this writing and publishing every day idea. I knew there had to be thousands of others out there who were facing the same creative friction as me, and this idea could help them burst through it.

So I sent a tweet to my nascent following of 500 people.

Six days after that tweet, we had 50 people in a Slack channel and we were off and running. Every person committing to writing and publishing every day for 30 days. Learning, iterating, building friendships, and having a damn good time doing it.

Nine months and 1,800 students later, Ship 30 for 30 has evolved from a Slack channel to an immersive, cohort-based writing course and community.

Cole and I have packed everything we know about building habits and writing online into over 20 hours of curriculum.

We've built templates and guides to help anyone, no matter their level of experience, start writing online. And we've built a rich, diverse community of like-minded writers and thinkers.

I can attribute every good thing in the last 18 months of my life to writing every day. I've gotten to meet and connect with people I used to idolize.  And best of all, I've helped over 1,800 people experience the benefits that come with writing online.

And the best part of this whole thing? Ship 30 for 30 is just getting started.

And we'd love to have you on board.
‍

Nicolas Cole

Ahoy! As a teenager, I had one of the first e-famous gaming blogs on the Internet.

I went on to study creative writing, fiction writing, and literature in college. But when I graduated, I had no idea how I was going to turn this passion of mine for writing into a career.

I took a job as an entry-level copywriter at a local advertising agency in downtown Chicago, but that's not what I really wanted to do.

I wanted to write books. I wanted to share my own thoughts and ideas with the world (not write social media copy for pizza chains and coconut water brands).

So, in an attempt to build myself as a writer in the digital age, I gave myself a goal.

I challenged myself to write every single day, on a website called Quora, for a year straight.

Best-case scenario, I would experience some sort of life-changing result and my writing would take off.

Worst-case scenario, I'd spend a year doing something I already loved and enjoyed, which was writing.

Well, writing every single day on Quora changed the entire trajectory of my life.

I ended up accumulating millions of views on my writing. In fact, one of my Quora answers ended up on the front page of Reddit, accumulating over 1,000,000 views in 48 hours.

By 2015, I was the #1 most-read writer on all of Quora (out of 200 million users).

And by 2016, I was invited to have my own column with Inc Magazine—where I wrote 400+ columns for the publication exclusively and became one of their Top 10 most-read contributing writers.

By the end of 2016, 3 short years after writing every single day on Quora, I successfully quit my job as a copywriter and began freelance writing for founders, CEOs, and venture capitalists.

By 2017, I had built a multimillion-dollar ghostwriting agency employing a dozen writers and editors, ghostwriting on behalf of hundreds of industry leaders.

And by 2020, I had turned everything I'd learned about writing online into a book, called The Art and Business of Online Writing.This brings us back to the beginning of the story.

By the time Dickie and I met, and I gave Ship 30 for 30 a try, I knew the importance of building a daily writing habit.

Why?

Because building daily writing habit was how I got my start as a writer. Challenging myself to write and publish something, anything, on Quora, every single day for a year, changed my life.

And I knew what Dickie was building had the potential to change other people's lives too.

And the rest is history.

Combined with Dickie's incredible idea for a cohort-based learning experience for writers, I brought in 10+ years of online writing insight to create a curriculum for anyone looking to get STARTED.

It had taken me years to learn many of these lessons on my own. But in Ship 30 for 30, we believed we will shorten your growth curve down to just 30 days.

Frequently Asked Questions

How much does this cost?

Other courses charge upwards of $7,000 to help you start writing online.

But our goal with Ship 30 is to keep it accessible while still charging enough to keep you accountable.

So the full price of enrollment for this special cohort is $800.

Can I gift enrollment of Ship 30 for 30 to a friend?

Absolutely! And what a tremendous gift indeed.

To do so, simply enroll using your email address.

Then, send an email to "hello@ship30for30.com" with the subject line GIFT TRANSFER REQUEST and we will send you further instructions.

Is this a self-paced thing or is it cohort-based?

Normally, Ship 30 for 30 is a self-paced course, with a community component.

However, this summer, we’re doing a special, one-off live cohort.

It’s going to be 30 days long and it will include 8 hour-long live sessions where you’ll have the chance to learn our signature frameworks directly from us.

That said, you will still unlock our self-paced Ship 30 curriculum as soon as you secure your spot for the July cohort—and you’ll have lifetime access to both the curriculum and all our live session replays.

What commitment is required from me?

We want to give you the flexibility to go as quickly (or as leisurely) as you'd like.

So, it’ll be up to you.

But Ship 30 for 30 is structured in a way where even people with full-time jobs and kids can still succeed.

If you can allocate ~30 minutes to yourself each day, you will be able to breeze through Ship 30 for 30 no problem.

Couldn't I just do this myself with all of the free content out there?

If you could, you would have already. 🤷🏻




‍

Can I buy one or some of these "mini-courses" separately?

Unfortunately, no.

Ship 30 for 30 is structured the way it is because we have learned EXACTLY what information you need, and what actions you need to take, in order to be successful.

If we started breaking it apart, we would be doing you a disservice.

What if I've never written online before?

Then Ship 30 for 30 is perfect for you!

We’ve engineered this program so that even complete beginners (who don't even have active social media accounts) can get started and not get lost along the way.

What if I’ve been writing online for years. Will this teach me anything new?

Out of 10,000+ people taking Ship 30 for 30, we can honestly say that not once have we had someone go through the program and say, “I didn’t learn anything new.”

Even seasoned writers and best-selling authors!

Ship 30 for 30 is the premier digital writing program, and is everything legacy English programs have no clue how to teach: the fundamentals of writing on the Internet.

How long do I have access to the course materials?

Lifetime access!

How is Ship 30 for 30 different from Premium Ghostwriting Academy?

Ship 30 for 30 is our beginner writing program, whereas Premium Ghostwriting Academy is our more advanced, more hands-on ghostwriting program.

Ship 30 for 30 sets the foundation for writing online, building an audience, and eventually monetizing through digital products.

Whereas Premium Ghostwriting Academy trains writers on how to land high-ticket clients and monetize by providing a service.

No-Questions-Asked Refund Policy

Last but not least...

We want your Ship 30 for 30 investment to be 100% risk free.

So, our refund policy is very simple.

If you complete the entire 30-day writing program, complete all the modules, and implement all of our frameworks into your content for 30 days in a row, and STILL don’t feel like you extracted the value you hoped, send us your 30 pieces for the month and we will give you a full refund.

No questions asked.

The reason we put this stipulation in place is because we KNOW (again, after having 10,000+ people go through the program) that the frameworks and strategies we teach in Ship 30 for 30 work.The variable we don’t have control over is that you have to be the one to put them into action.

Stop overthinking.

Finally start writing in 2025.

One last thing...

If you're down here, you might be thinking...

"Is this really worth it?"

And sure - you could go and stitch together all of the glorious free content we've put out there on all things digital writing.

And you could use all that content to try and start writing on your own.

But I'm guessing that if you're on this page, and you've read this far, you've tried something like this before.

And the results... well...

They're not what you've been hoping for.

And since "start writing" entered your to-do list (likely long ago), you've probably seen dozens of other people do it successfully, building audiences and businesses in the process.

So here we are, 2024 has flown by. That blank page and crisp fresh start just a little bit away.

Now, wouldn't it be magical to look back at the end of 2025, pointing to this exact moment, this exact decision, as the thing that led to an incredible, lifechanging year? 

A new business, a new career, new friendships, a completely new personal trajectory, all of these are possible - all from the simple habit of writing online.

And it can all start right here, right now.

So, what do you say?
