How Women Write

01: How Women Write — an Initiation Into a Flow-Filled Writing Life


Listen Later

Welcome to the debut episode of 'How Women Write.' I'm Jacqueline Fisch, and I'm excited to introduce you to writing flow. I've never bought into the lie that writing needed to be a struggle. Writer's block is complete BS, and I believe that everyone can write.

In this episode, you'll hear about my road to thriving in the writing life, from reading books on writing to forcing myself into masculine writing challenges to finding flow with writing based on nature's rhythms.

You'll also hear about:

  • The approach I took to write my first two books
  • Why writing looks different for women depending on the day
  • The real reason women burn out in the middle of their writing projects
  • The number one way to write faster

A sneak peek into some future podcast topics, such as writing rituals, the rejection of writer's block, and inspiring conversations with other women writers.
