On Being Happy and a Successful Writer at the Same Time

What if success didn’t have to cost your sanity?

For years, USA Today bestselling author Russell Nohelty chased the “dream” of massive book sales, bestseller lists, and unlimited creative freedom...

…but achieving it came at the cost of his health, his happiness, and even his love for writing. Now, he's on a mission to make sure nobody else has to make the same devil’s bargain ever again.

In On Being Happy and a Successful Writer at the Same Time, Nohelty draws from hundreds of books on happiness, years of business experience, and the lived reality of chronic illness to lay out a practical, holistic framework that helps writers align their creative work with joy, abundance, and their natural tendencies.

This brutally honest, refreshingly hopeful guide offers a path forward for authors who want to thrive—not just survive.

Inside, you’ll learn how to:

Rebuild your mindset to measure success on your own terms

Connect with the right audience without selling your soul

Prioritize like a pro, even when time and energy are scarce

Generate income that fuels your creative freedom, not drains it

Stop feeling broken, and start building a sustainable author business that actually feels good

Whether you're just starting out or hitting burnout after years in the trenches, this book will help you realign with what truly matters, so you can stop chasing success and start living it.
