FIRST NOVEL FEAR
from Write Better, Author Smarter with Autumn Bardot Hosted by Autumn Bardot
#authorpodcast #writingpodcast #newwriter Do you have a manuscript sitting on your laptop? Are your too afraid to take the next step? Don't be! I hear it all the time. I'm too afraid to show my manuscript to anyone. Someone will criticize it. Someone will suggest a revision or tell me it's not perfect! In this episode, we look at all the new writer excuses for not taking the next step and why you simply must overcome those fears to be the best writer you can and fulfill your writing goals. Fear is fine! It's totally normal. But don't let it stop you from achieving your writing dreams. Oh, and Mrs. Potato Head? I use her to explain why your fears are not a great as you think they are and why those fears will help you become a better writer. By the way, your manuscript is NOT your book baby! There's a better name for it! Oops! The poem is actually called, "I Give You Back."
