If you want to unclog your publication pipeline and get more consistent with your writing and publishing, you must develop a resilient writing practice.

In this episode, I discuss how a resilient writing practice allows you to navigate life's inevitable derailments so you don't have to be resilient yourself. Rather than writing from guilt or pressure, a resilient practice lets you pause and return to your work. I explain how predictable challenges, like academic responsibilities, and unpredictable ones, like illness, can impact your writing. 

Then, I share the essential components of a resilient practice and how to foster a more positive relationship with your writing. From embracing disruptions to accepting your humanity and setting realistic expectations, I guide you through the process of maintaining consistency and finding fulfillment in your writing.
