When was the last time you did nothing?

I’m not talking about scrolling your phone or checking emails while waiting in line. I mean really doing nothing—just letting your mind wander.

Some years ago, I came across a quote from an entrepreneur who advised you to, “Take one hour a day where you do absolutely nothing but sit and think.”

There’s something powerful in that.

In this episode of The Confident Fiction Author podcast, I’m sharing why stepping away might be exactly what you need to move forward in your writing, and how doing less can actually unlock more.

It’s not about laziness. It’s about giving your creative brain space to do its best work.

P.S. This episode contains a big announcement about the podcast! Tune in for details.
