Are you a writer? Can you confidently say it?
Last week, we were at the Southern Festival of Books and talked to many people who hesitated to say, “Yes, I’m a writer.”
We dig into why we hesitate—including our own perfectionism, confidence killers, burn-out, and more—and how we overcome them.
We also learn about the origins of our perception of ghosts and play a silly game where Emily has to create a spontaneous presentation using pre-chosen slides by Jon Meyers.
Call to Action
Write something every day! Emily is taking on the challenge (Jon Meyers already does it!).

One response to ““I’m a writer, but…” What’s stopping you?”
Even though I am not currently writing a novel, I signed up for NaNoWriMo (National Novel Writing Month) this year with just a goal of writing something every day. So far this November, I have written a children’s book each day for my nine-month-old granddaughter! And at the end of each day, I write at least the germ of an idea for tomorrow’s story.
