In addition to being an inspirational self-help book, Ready When You Are also includes scholarly research on the influence of Cecil B. DeMille's Biblical epics as well as recently-discovered articles on filmmaking written by DeMille himself.

    Hammond says, "I discovered these principles while working on my Master of Fine Arts in Creative Writing and researching the life of DeMille and the beginnings of the motion picture industry."
