The Whole Writer

89. Are You Gatekeeping Your Writing Work?


Listen Later

If you’re a novelist or fiction writer keeping your work tucked away, convinced you’re “not ready” to share it, this episode is for you. We’re talking about what it really means to gatekeep your writing—and how doing so might be holding your creative growth hostage.

I’ll unpack the mindset behind working in a silo and the fears that keep writers protecting their stories a little too tightly. I'll share what gatekeeping your work is costing you, and what might be possible if you let your story breathe, share it with trusted eyes, and step into the next stage of your writing journey.

Tune in to learn more.
