Why You Shouldn’t Wait for the Muse to Start Writing
A Note About This Post
Years ago, Harlequin asked me to share my best advice for new writers.
One topic came up immediately: the myth of the muse.
Writers love the idea of waiting for inspiration to strike. But if you’re serious about finishing a book, waiting is the fastest way not to!
In this video, I share the mindset shift that helped me move from “aspiring” to “working” author, and why discipline beats inspiration every time.
If you’ve ever stalled out waiting to feel ready, this one’s for you.
