E41. The One About Writing: My Writing Journey and Path Toward Publication
About this episode
I don't think I've ever been this excited about a Stepping Off Now episode! I share all about my writing journey, including my previous failures to get published (ouch), how deciding not to seek publication of any kind for my work for a number of years helped me reconnect with my creative inspiration, and how I feel about now being back on a path toward publication with my newly completed novel (suffice it to say, those feelings are complicated! I know you expect nothing less from me haha).
Plus, I have some exciting news! Andy Mort, the proprietor of the online community the Haven, for sensitive creative types, has asked me to share my path toward publication in a dedicated forum there! I have named it From Burnout To Book, and I would so love for you to join the Haven and participate. I will be sharing all my hard-earned wisdom and lessons learned in a gentle, encouraging, and mutually supportive environment for writers of all kinds, including those who have yet to write a word. All are welcome!
Note: Haven promotion no longer active.
Find out more about Andy Mort, who designed the Haven as a place where sensitive creatives can find a nonjudgmental and mutually supportive environment in which to explore their creativity.
