80 - Reaching THE END of The First Draft
In this episode I’m sharing the experience of seeing the light at the end of the first draft tunnel and writing those last 20,000 words to reach The End. It was a relief, an “oh my gosh, I’m almost there!” moment. I braced myself. I still had to keep doing exactly what I’d already done for almost...

79 - The Rhythm of The Creative Process
Not the A to Z, linear process you’ve been taught. We still have a beginning, middle, and an end, but we also have a break after the end. That makes the four seasons of the creative process that we’re more familiar with as Spring, Summer, Autumn, and Winter. Our creative energy follows the same...

76 - That DAM(N) Writer's Block
Let’s stop glorifying writer’s block the same way we’ve stopped glorifying being busy. There is a root cause of your writer’s block. You can identify it and move through it with relative ease and action. If you have multiple ideas vying for your attention, you’re afraid of running out of ideas…

75 - Get Unstuck: Clear Those Sneaky Expectations
A passing thought can become a sneaky expectation that creates emotional turmoil, friction, stress, and that feeling of being stuck. Let alone if you’ve intentionally created a fully-fledged plan and become consciously attached to those expectations, to things working out a certain way. I share…

74 - Excitement After an Unplanned Hiatus From Writing

70 - What A 1000 Word Writing Session Looks Like (Part One)
I get distracted when I’m writing. I have to hide my phone from myself. I can check the word count multiple times as I progress from zero to 300 to 550 to 800 and finally to my 1000-word goal. And every writing session has an ebb and flow, a rise and fall that we can learn to navigate with...

69 - Is It Cheating To Copy & Paste Words Into My Book
I copied quotes from a reference book into my word count and it felt like cheating. I copied the 7000 word transcript from a podcast episode into my manuscript and it felt like cheating. Why was I valuing the “hard work” of writing new words above quotes that were far more likely to make it into...
