Welcome to DIY MFA Radio, where I do a deep dive into the writing life as well as the craft and business of writing. Today's episode continues our series: Ten Lessons from Ten Years of Podcasting. This is Lesson 9 – Take Baby Steps. Have you gotten the DIY MFA Starter Kit yet?

You'll learn more about how to write with focus, read with purpose, and build your community.

In this episode I discuss: The importance of dreaming big but executing through small "baby steps." How goal setting is a lot like climbing a mountain. The "plant the flag" moment, what it is and why it matters. Why it's essential to reverse-engineer the action steps toward your goals. For more info and show notes: diymfa.com/484
