L.R.J. Allen goes over self-publishing, the idea of writing for an audience of one, and writing in the face of self-doubt. When asking yourself “should you write,” it requires the courage to write and keep writing WITH the self-doubt. He takes us on a sneak peak of what he has coming up and the process of writing them. I personally love how his wife edited one of his latest works.
