222. The Problem with “Deadline Math”
from The Author Burnout Cure · host Isabel Sterling
When you’re on deadline for your book, it can be tempting to do “deadline math” to figure out how many words you need to write each day. Unfortunately…this process often leaves authors feeling stressed, disempowered, and creatively blocked. It can also create an environment where it’s easy to slip into a hustle/burnout cycle. If you want to create a healthier relationship with deadlines, it’s time to embrace the power of the “MEM.” *** The July cohort of The Confident Author Academy is enrolling NOW through June 20th. Join a small group of authors (max 20) doing the work to have fun writing, meet deadlines without burnout, and feel confident in every aspect of your career (yes, including marketing!).
