Tell The Damn Story, ep 412: From Draft to Mastery: How To Build Confidence Through the Writer’s Process
from Tell The Damn Story · host Alex Simmons & Chris Ryan
Hey, storytellers! This week, Alex Simmonss and Chris Ryan are getting real about something every creative struggles with at some point—confidence. They’re sharing stories about their own writing journeys (the wins and the wipeouts), dropping wisdom from Caroline Bick’s new book about digging into Stephen King’s archives, and giving honest answers to the most common confidence-killers that hold writers back. Expect tips on handling lame plots, cringey dialogue, imposter syndrome, and the pressure to finish what you start—with plenty of laughs and no sugarcoating. Whether you’re working on your first story or your fiftieth, this episode is all about helping you build yourself up and keep going. So grab your favorite drink, settle in, and let’s get inspired together!Have any questions, comments, or suggestions?Then, please leave them in the Comments Section.Write: [email protected] follow us on ...@Tell The Damn Story [email protected]/Tell The Damn Story YouTube.com/ Tell The Damn StoryStories change lives.
