S9E5: Thinking Creatively Through Photos looks at how images can help you convey your book/self/business/etc message on social media.

It's not news, yet some people forget that images tend to grab your attention more than words. If you can use a picture to stop someone scrolling and look at your post, wouldn't you?

Includes creative thinking, tips, my thoughts on selfies.

S9E4 A Deep Dive enters the world of self-refection for the aim of working things out.

You know how sometimes we need to fulfil a task but our brain tells us, 'nope, not gonna happen'? I believe it uses the cover of procrastination but there's something from the past stopping us that is truly the issue.

Past stuff that hasn't been dealt with, or dealt with completely, can put a stopper on moving forwards professionally and personally. In this epi, I uncover so uncomfy truths about myself through self-analysis and suggest ways for you to do the same with the intention of clearing out our minds and getting the original task done.

*** I AM NOT A MEDICAL PROFESSIONAL*** I am simply trying techniques that work for me.

Firstly, thank you so much for being patient and waiting for Season 9. As you'll hear in the episode, the delay was due to getting a traditional publishing contract that had a deadline attached. 

Since then, all my focus has been on that book.

Today's episode looks at the dissection of DREAM STATE, my novel published in Dec 2022. At the start of the episode, you'll hear a tiny bonus of giggles - unusual from TVW, but hope it makes you smile too.

It's easy to forget what's important when you've a million things coming at you. It's also easy to think what you're doing isn't important. Trusting your gut is as vital to being a writer as the air you breathe.
