S1 E2: The Writer's Toolbox - You NEED to know THIS about writing to save yourself getting STUCK!

The Writer's Help Desk

Are you overwhelmed by so many to-dos you don't know where to start? Maybe you've already delved deep into the how-to-write-a [insert type of writing you want to write here] maze.
I know what it's like when you're searching for answers, a clear, simple path to write a book, a novel, a short story, or maybe even a memoir. The avalanche of information that's out there can get you stuck in the mud! The pressure of knowing what a finished book/novel is meant to look like is enough to make any sensible human want to run and hide under a rock (and that's why most people do).
Writing can't be simple can it? You need to know XYZ and ABC before you even start, and you have to have...blah blah... yeah, I've heard it all before.
But overthinking anything can lead to total and utter panic, fear, and anxiety and no one who's ever written anything can write very much under those conditions.
So, what do you need to know about writing a novel or a book?
Why is it so important that this topic is number 2 in your Writer's Toolbox?
I suppose you're going to have to listen to find out...
My aim, as always, is to help you;

• Start writing
• Build your confidence in your own writing ability and creative choices
• Keep going when life happens
• Stay motivated when you're finding it tough
• Avoid getting stuck by knowing what to expect
• Finish your writing!
