Down About Writing? WATCH THIS! | Writer Pep Talk
I'm here with a writer pep talk for all seasons and reasons! If you're down about writing, I am here to cheer you up. I'm offering positive encouragement about finishing books, editing, querying, traditional publishing, and more!
The sun decided to have some fun with me, so apologies for the variance in brightness in the video! I'm also getting over a cold, which you can probably tell.
TIMESTAMPS
01:20 Most people will never finish a book but YOU DID
02:30 First books are messy and THAT'S OK!
03:24 All books need editing, so you can fix anything!
04:37 Most authors don't publish their first books-NORMAL!
05:33 Writing is a skill--you can improve!
06:38 Don't compare your first draft to a final product
07:51 Every writing process is a valid writing process (if it works for you)
09:05 Your competition isn't what you think it is
10:37 Good writing matters
11:59 Storytelling matters
12:45 Hard work & professional pays off
14:00 Second book symdrome sucks (you're not crazy)
15:39 Finding critique partners is hard (you're not crazy)
17:21 You are good enough (or will be)
18:28 Writing is a long game
19:56 There's room for similar/lots of stories
21:44 Write like you're running out of time (but you're not)
