The Write It Scared Podcast

Tips to Write Despite the Fear and Anxiety of "It's Not Good Enough."


Listen Later

Today, we celebrate a podcasting milestone and discuss how knowing who you're writing for can help calm your inner critic so you can push past the fear and anxiety of the work not being good enough.

In this episode, we delve into the story of E.B. White, a celebrated American author who also struggled with fear and anxiety, to draw inspiration and lessons. I also discuss my writing fears and how I've learned to embrace them. 

Whether you're just starting or feeling stuck, join me in learning to write for yourself, embrace what scares you, and take actionable steps toward your writing goals. 

Remember, confidence comes through doing, and it's okay to write it scared!
