“I want to write a book, but I don’t know where to start.” I hear this and read this from aspiring writers a lot. They have great ideas but are overwhelmed.

What if you have too many? Where do you even start tackling this project?

In this episode, I share why I think planning and outlining is important, what you should include in your plan, and why creating a plan will NOT, in fact stifle, your creativity.
