Australian Amy Hopkins knows how important having writer friends is: whether it's getting you out of a self-doubt funk or collaborating on new projects, she's found the support she needs to help her reach her goals. We talk a little about those goals, how she sets them (hint: not 5 years in advance! Just a few months at a time), and get into discussing her current and future projects.

Amy shares:

• What's different about her Writer Mom Life this year
• Why she focuses on quarterly goals
• How she started collaborating with Michael Anderle
• What that kind of massive collaboration project looks like (it sounds so fun!)
• Why it's been such a successful model for Michael (hint: it puts readers first!)
• Why she's doing a pen name for her next series
• Where she found her "family" of other writers
• What she hopes to be able to do in 3 years (not 3 months!)

In the tips, the first in a 3-part series on tools, J. R. and Daphne talk about their favorite writing tools.
