#43 What if my story isn't special?

Hello and welcome, luminous writers. I'm Rachel Thompson. I'm an author, a literary magazine editor, and an online writing instructor. And this is Write, Publish, and Shine, a podcast for emerging writers who want to publish and shine. In this season of Write, Publish, and Shine, we'll talk about how to keep making art when the world needs our resistance, when your energy is stretched and when you still feel called to the page. You'll hear interviews with writers and editors about sustaining a practice, craft-focused episodes on tension, revision, voice, and structure, and personal reflections on the realities of writing and creating with care. Every episode offers one or two practical moves you can try. I hope when you listen, you’re reminded that you're not alone in the work of being a luminous writer, i.e. a writer who's attentive to seasons, to the world, and to developing both craft and resilience.
