I am so happy to have Jeff Goins join me for an interview on my radio show! Jeff is a pretty remarkable guy, who knows how to reach his readers. In about a year’s time, Jeff was able to grow his blog ‘Goins: Writer’ from almost nothing to getting thousands of readers daily. As someone who blogs regularly, I can tell you that it takes someone special to accomplish such a feat. It’s truly remarkable. On Jeff’s Twitter page, we describes himself as a “Writer & Difference Maker.” It is so true, as he has provided inspiration to countless people, encouraging them to write “for love of the craft, not accolades or acclaim.”
Originally from Chicago, Jeff moved to Nashville after graduating from college and spending a year traveling with a band. In college, he studied Spanish and Religion and spent part of his Junior year in Spain, which unlocked a passion for travel, humanitarianism, and other cultures.
But even with a restless heart, he’s found a home. After a year of letter-writing and long-distance phone calls, he moved to Tennessee to “see about a girl.” In 2008, he married her.
Jeff lives with his wife Ashley, their son Aiden, and their dog Lyric just outside of Nashville. During the day, he’s the Communications Director for Adventures in Missions, a nonprofit organization. In his free time, he writes books and tries to take over the Internet.
Jeff has written and guest-blogged for a lot of magazines, publications, and blogs. To find out more about his writing, check out his portfolio.
Jeff is also a speaker, creative coach, and consultant. If you’re interested in having him speak for you, check out Jeff’s speaking page.
Jeff’s blog is his home base. If you want to get an immediate response, you can email Jeff at jeff@goinswriter.com. But you can also find him on the following social networks (in order of how much he uses them):
