Writing a novel is hard. Writing six? That taught me I can do just about anything.
In this episode, I’m reflecting on what I learned from writing a six-book cozy mystery series, and how that experience shaped my creative process, built my confidence, and helped me trust the messy middle.
You’ll hear:
Why I focused on one book at a time instead of overplanning the series arc
How I kept going even when my first drafts felt chaotic
What changed in me once I realized I could finish hard things
If you want to build a writing practice that gives you momentum—and helps you actually finish—coaching can give you the support and strategy you need. Book a free consultation to see if we’re a good fit. https://calendly.com/joseesmith/book
