This episode is for the writer who has received some lackluster feedback. Maybe she’s already invested in an editor, but they didn’t tell her how to fix any of the manuscript’s problems. This episode is all about the importance of developing an author’s perspective and how that will translate into the work you do in revisions. Let’s get into it.

So, after I recorded this episode I actually changed the title to our next mini masterclass! Memoir vs. Autobiography is now Thinking Like an Author: The Mindset Shift to Unlock Your Memoir. It's this mentality that is really what I want to get into with you (and this includes differentiating between memoir and autobiography!).

Enroll in Thinking Like an Author for just $37.

(Or enroll in all four mini masterclasses here.)

Thinking Like a Writer will be held live on Thursday, January 30, at 1:00 p.m. PST. If you can't attend live, no worries! The replay will be uploaded later that day. If you're watching this after January 30, 2024, that same link will give you instant access!

This episode is for the writer who is over-editing and over-writing (you know who you are!). You look at the same paragraphs over and over and think if you just tweak it a little more you’ll find the sweet spot. But what ends up happening is that you actually just spend your time in the same passages not making any real progress at all. This episode is for you.

This episode is for the writer who has too much story. She’s starting the year with a burst of energy and motivation, but when she sits down to open her draft she freezes. She can’t find the focus of her story, and that feeling of being lost is quickly crowding out any motivation she had at the beginning of the month. This episode is for you. Let’s get started.

This episode is for the writing terrified of her revisions. She’s looking down the barrel of what she’s written with no idea how to make sense of it. I know exactly what she’s missing, and this puzzle piece will create a domino effect in the revisions process that makes everything make sense.

This episode is for the writer who wants more from her editor. She wants not just someone who can smooth her prose and correct her commas; she wants an editor who  is a partner throughout the writing and revisions process. She wants an editor with whom she can have a relationship, not just someone she sends her manuscript to in one email and receives it back in the next. There are many ways to experience an editor, and today I’m talking about mine.

This episode is for the writer who feels passionately about her story but feels overwhelm creeping in, because she doesn't know what she doesn't know. She knows that something is off in her manuscript but can't pinpoint what she needs to fix. She's new to the editorial process and wants to know more about what she's getting into. She wants to feel supported and empowered throughout the entire editing experience. This episode is for you.

This episode is for the writer ready to write smarter, not harder. She’s Googled all the things, watched all the YouTube videos, and knows that she’s missing something. What she doesn’t realize yet is that she has all the information she needs—she just needs a new way of looking at it. I’m really excited for this episode, so let’s go!

This episode is for the writer who feels stuck and overwhelmed. You want to work on—and even finish!—your memoir. But you're feeling blocked and don't know how to move through it. In my years of working with writers, I've noticed a few self-sabotaging patterns that keep you in frustrating writing loop. In today's episode, I'll break that down and also go over how to choose the right editor (because that can be harder than you think!).
