47. Shifting the needle from dreaming to writing

One year ago, I released my first podcast episodes. Since then, I have had the privilege of speaking with 26 other writers who have shared their lessons learned and inspired more parents and writers to pursue their writing dreams.

I've noticed some reoccurring themes among my guests and myself, choices and ways of thinking that shift the needle from dreaming about writing to taking action. 

So, I've compiled these clips with the hope that when you're done listening to this, you not only will know you can do this too, but you'll also pick up a pen or sit down at a keyboard and write.

Topics discussed in this episode: 

• Nancy McCabe on shaping her life around writing
• Dominique Snedeker on letting us be ourselves
• Sara Burnett on writing and parenting simultaneously
• Amanda Schiller on teaching herself writing
• Melissa Puritis on taking herself off the shelf
• Gina Colgrove on writing fearlessly
• Esme Iris on finding the right support
• Linnea March on fighting self-doubt
• Camisha Broussard on transparency and judgment
