Episode 111: The Not-So-Sexy Side of Your Writer Life

On the podcast this week, we’re chatting about the CEO/Admin tasks that come with your writing life. You’re a writer. If you haven’t claimed this identity for yourself, I’d love to hop on a call and dig into what’s standing in your way. I offer this invitation because it took me a long time to finally say “I’m a Writer” and I wish I’d gotten there sooner. I’ve been wanting to write my contemporary romance novels since 7th grade when I was hanging out at the barn with my horse. So, if I can help you find your way to owning your Writer identity sooner, I’d love to support you. You can get on my calendar here: https://calendly.com/oswaldphd/thirty-with-stephanieAs a writer, you’re an entrepreneur of books. Has anyone ever said this to you?I heard it recently and it stuck with me. It’s a powerful thought to have for yourself. Your book is your business. Every book you write is part of your business. You’re the CEO of your Writer life. Even if you traditionally publish your book, you’re still in charge of making sure your book gets in the hands of readers. Sometimes, as a creative thinker, those small organization tasks or the planning of your content calendar are just not top of mind. This week’s episode will help you get into your CEO mindset. And, if you’re looking for time to jumpstart getting those business tasks done, we have another Virtual Writer’s Retreat coming up April 17-19.
