⁠⁣
As a writer, confidence rarely stems from external validation, like accolades or book sales. It starts with our own self-love.⁠⁣
⁠⁣
It comes from the belief that your work is worthy of being in the world simply because you have a story to tell that you are enjoying the process of bringing to life.⁣
⁣
Confidence is not reserved for authors whose books are deemed "great" by professionals. Writing is too subjective for that. How many bestsellers have you read that you think completely suck?⁠⁣
⁣
You can be working on bettering your craft while appreciating where you currently are and enjoying the process. Because you deserve to enjoy it. You deserve to feel good about it no matter where you are in your journey. 🖤⁣

⁠⁣
⇢ Declare that you're a writer. You're a writer simply through the act of writing — nothing else.⁠⁣
⁠⁣
⇢ Own your dreams. Instead of focusing on the fear of disappointment, focus on the fear of regret for never having tried at all.⁠⁣
⁠⁣
⇢ Set your intention. Want to be a bestselling author? Declare it and decide that it's possible! (Because it is.)⁠⁣
⁠⁣
⇢ Write for you. Your only responsibility is to write what you are called to write in a way that feels good to you.⁠⁣

Happy April, friends! Like many of you, I set fresh intentions at the beginning of each month.⁣
⁣
Whenever I do this — whether it’s for my writing goals or general goals — I use the SMART system to plan them out. It makes it a lot easier to really flesh out a goal so it is more focused and tangible.⁣
⁣
If you’ve been struggling to stick to your writing goals, it’s probably because it was too vague or too overwhelming.⁣
⁣
The more specific you are with what you’re working toward, the easier it is to stay on track and make real progress.⁣
⁣

⁣
Take one of your smaller goals that is leading toward a larger outcome (like finishing the first draft of a novel in order to work towards your big goal of becoming a published author) and break it down into the following:⁣
⁣
SPECIFIC — Define a clear, tangible outcome you desire. (𝘍𝘪𝘯𝘪𝘴𝘩 𝘵𝘩𝘦 𝘧𝘪𝘳𝘴𝘵 𝘥𝘳𝘢𝘧𝘵 𝘰𝘧 𝘮𝘺 𝘯𝘰𝘷𝘦𝘭.)⁣
⁣
MEASURABLE — Determine how you will measure your progress. (𝘐’𝘭𝘭 𝘵𝘳𝘢𝘤𝘬 𝘮𝘺 𝘥𝘢𝘪𝘭𝘺 𝘸𝘰𝘳𝘥 𝘤𝘰𝘶𝘯𝘵.)⁣
⁣
ATTAINABLE — Make sure it is challenging but realistic to achieve. (𝘛𝘩𝘦 𝘥𝘳𝘢𝘧𝘵 𝘸𝘪𝘭𝘭 𝘣𝘦 80,000 𝘸𝘰𝘳𝘥𝘴.)⁣
⁣
RELEVANT — Identify what value it will bring to your life. (𝘍𝘪𝘯𝘪𝘴𝘩𝘪𝘯𝘨 𝘵𝘩𝘪𝘴 𝘧𝘪𝘳𝘴𝘵 𝘥𝘳𝘢𝘧𝘵 𝘸𝘪𝘭𝘭 𝘣𝘦 𝘵𝘩𝘦 𝘧𝘪𝘳𝘴𝘵 𝘮𝘢𝘫𝘰𝘳 𝘴𝘵𝘦𝘱 𝘵𝘰𝘸𝘢𝘳𝘥 𝘧𝘶𝘭𝘧𝘪𝘭𝘭𝘪𝘯𝘨 𝘮𝘺 𝘥𝘳𝘦𝘢𝘮 𝘰𝘧 𝘣𝘦𝘤𝘰𝘮𝘪𝘯𝘨 𝘢 𝘱𝘶𝘣𝘭𝘪𝘴𝘩𝘦𝘥 𝘢𝘶𝘵𝘩𝘰𝘳.)⁣
⁣
TIME-BOUND — Set a time frame in order to stay focused. (𝘐’𝘭𝘭 𝘧𝘪𝘯𝘪𝘴𝘩 𝘪𝘵 𝘪𝘯 𝘧𝘪𝘷𝘦 𝘮𝘰𝘯𝘵𝘩𝘴.)⁣
⁣
Now, you’ll have much more clarity on what to do so you can make consistent progress toward your goal.⁣

Let's play: give yourself 10 points for each thing on the following list that you can relate to. (Thank you to the beautiful @thevanessaluisa for the tag!)⁠⁣

⁠⁣
× I'm a "plantser" (a planner/pantser hybrid). I love to outline my stories but I leave space for discovery and am willing to break away from it in the drafting stage when my characters lead me in new, exciting directions.⁠⁣
⁠⁣
× Fantasy is my favorite genre to write in but I'm also interested in pretty much every other genre, too. I'd love to explore the others more in the future. In the meantime, I pull elements from various genres and mix them with fantasy.⁠⁣
⁠⁣
× All of my stories have a heavy dose of romance in them. It makes everything more exciting, in my opinion. 😅⁠⁣
⁠⁣
× I absolutely love reading and writing books but my ultimate dream is to develop TV series/films. I've always been obsessed with filmmaking.⁠⁣
⁠⁣
× Whenever I start developing a new project, two of my first steps are to create a mood board on Pinterest and a playlist on Spotify. Then, I pretty much have my mood board open and my playlist on every time I work on it to help me step into the world of the story.⁠⁣
⁠⁣
× If I'm not listening to my WIP's playlist while writing, I'm usually listening to movie scores or ambient sounds.⁠⁣
⁠⁣
× When we're not in a global panini, I love to write at coffee shops, cafes, and hotels. Bonus points if I can sit outside and there's a beautiful view.⁠⁣
⁠⁣
× ⁠When writing fiction at home, I usually prefer to sit on the sofa under a blanket than at my desk.⁠⁣
⁠⁣
× ⁠I work through plot holes and story ideas best when I'm away from my computer doing a simple activity that allows my mind to wander, like taking a walk or driving.⁠⁣
⁠⁣
× ⁠I've always planned on self-publishing because I love the idea of retaining creative control over my works and being able to connect directly with readers.⁠⁣

⁠⁣
This has been one of my reoccurring thoughts while working on the second draft of my WIP, 𝙿𝚁𝙾𝙹𝙴𝙲𝚃 𝙲𝙾𝙰𝚂𝚃𝙻𝙸𝙽𝙴, to make the story stronger.⁠⁣
⁠⁣
Sorry in advance to my characters who are getting significantly less joy from this process than I am. I promise, I love you. 😬⁠⁣

⁠⁣
⁠Now, more than ever, it's easy for me to get stuck in my head. When the noise or negative energy (like anxiety) starts to build up, I've found that interrupting it with an inspired action helps me move through it.⁠⁣
⁠⁣
It can be something as simple as putting on some music, going for a walk, or changing up my atmosphere. ⁠⁣
⁠⁣
With all of the monotony and stress of this past year, I use this technique a lot to get me in the right mindset to write when I'm feeling restless or distracted, or even when I'm feeling creatively stuck.⁠⁣
⁠⁣
𝚂𝙾𝙼𝙴 𝙸𝙳𝙴𝙰𝚂 𝚃𝙾 𝚂𝙷𝙸𝙵𝚃 𝚈𝙾𝚄𝚁 𝙴𝙽𝙴𝚁𝙶𝚈:⁠⁣
⁠⁣
× Take a walk⁠⁣
× Go for a drive⁠⁣
× Put on a great song & dance around for a few minutes⁠⁣
× Change up your atmosphere (move to a different room, go outside, put on an ambient video, light a candle, etc)⁠⁣
× Brew some tea (or coffee)⁠⁣
× Read something inspiring⁠⁣
× Watch something funny⁠⁣
× Look at beautiful art⁠⁣
× Do a brain dump — journal for 5 minutes or 3 pages⁠⁣
⁠⁣
It's one of those things that sounds too easy to work but somehow, it does. I do this all the time, especially when I'm experiencing anxiety.⁠⁣
⁠⁣
We may not have control over our feelings but we do have control over where our attention is going, and that can affect how we feel.⁠⁣
⁠⁣
Your power and choices are abundant. Exercise them. 🖤⁠⁣
⁠⁣

𝐀𝐧 𝐞𝐚𝐬𝐲 𝐭𝐫𝐢𝐜𝐤 𝐟𝐨𝐫 𝐝𝐞𝐚𝐥𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐰𝐢𝐭𝐡 𝐫𝐞𝐬𝐢𝐬𝐭𝐚𝐧𝐜𝐞...⁣
⁠⁣
When I used to feel resistance, I’d follow its lead and automatically recoil from whatever was causing it. I wouldn’t question it.⁠⁣
⁠⁣
Now, I approach it with curiosity. What is it trying to tell me?⁠⁣
⁠⁣
Usually, resistance is coming from either fear or your instincts telling you something isn't right. There is a lot of important information buried in it.⁠⁣
⁠⁣
If it’s fear — what are you afraid of? Keep digging and pulling back the onion. Once you recognize what the deeper fear is, you can start a dialogue with yourself and decide whether or not that fear is useful, or whether it’s even valid. Without identifying what the fear is, you’ll just blindly follow your automatic reaction to the perceived threat.⁠⁣
⁠⁣
If it’s your intuition telling you something isn’t right — explore what isn’t working. Maybe the project you’ve taken on doesn’t align with your goals anymore or there’s a better method you could be using to get the results you want.⁠⁣
⁠⁣
Whenever I feel resistance around my writing, for example, I know it’s due to fear (self-doubt, overwhelm, etc) or something about the project that doesn’t feel right, like when I’m forcing myself to follow a certain creative process that isn’t working for me.⁠⁣
⁠⁣
Resistance is always trying to tell you something. Don’t be afraid of it; ask it questions. In my experience, there is always a wealth of insight to be found there.⁣

I saw this book recommended a few times so as soon as I went into Second Draft Mode, I ordered a copy and binge-read it as prep for editing.⁠⁣
⁠⁣
I was immediately glad that I did.⁠ This book is a GOLD MINE for taking your manuscript to the next level.⁠⁣
⁠⁣
The authors — two highly experienced professional editors — walk you through the process they use when editing their clients' manuscripts to create the best possible reader experience.⁠⁣
⁠⁣
Once you've written your story, this book gives you the techniques that will help you analyze your writing to make sure that it captures and communicates what you set out to accomplish.⁠⁣
⁠⁣

⇢ Lots of examples⁠ in every lesson⁠⁣

⁠⁣
I definitely recommend adding this to your author toolbox. It's been a great companion to my editing process.⁠⁣

Since starting work on the second draft of 𝙿𝚁𝙾𝙹𝙴𝙲𝚃 𝙲𝙾𝙰𝚂𝚃𝙻𝙸𝙽𝙴, I've been taking a breather and filling up my creative well again.⁠⁣
⁠⁣
One of the ways I like to do that is by studying the craft through books, classes, etc. It gets my gears turning and helps me see my project from a fresh perspective, mainly by prompting me with the right questions.⁠⁣
⁠⁣
The reminders and new techniques I pick up help me identify weak spots, as well as strengthen the areas my instincts are telling me could be better but that I'm running into a wall on.⁠⁣
⁠⁣
Here's what I've been consuming lately:⁠⁣
⁠⁣
×⁠ "Self-Editing for Fiction Writers" to help me with revisions — super helpful and HIGHLY recommend it (full review coming this week)⁠⁣.
⁠⁣
×⁠ "Story Genius" which is absolutely worth all the hype. It goes deep into character motivation as the driving force of a story, which is nothing new but she expands on it in a fresh, interesting way. I'm halfway through and it's already helped me strengthen my WIPs.⁠⁣
⁠⁣
×⁠ @brandsanderson’s brilliant lectures on writing science fiction and fantasy (thanks to @authorkkhavari for letting me know about them!) which I've been binging this past week. Enormously helpful.⁠⁣
⁠⁣

I've been giving my second draft a lot of breathing room to tell me what it needs and to feel my way through everything: what is missing, what isn't serving the story, how I can take it to the next level.⁠⁣
⁠⁣
❝The first draft is black and white. Editing gives the story color.❞ — EMMA HILL⁠⁣
⁠⁣
This quote sums up exactly what this part of the process feels like to me.⁠ I'm watching my book come to life. The first draft was me gathering up all the ingredients; now, I'm finally doing the cooking.⁠⁣
⁠⁣
I've been sitting with it and taking my time, letting it speak to me and allowing myself to indulge in the sweet journey of discovery.⁠⁣
⁠⁣
My advice would be to not rush your edits. I rushed through the first draft to get it all down on paper and now, the beauty of this second draft is that I get to finesse it and play with what is there.⁠⁣
