What’s your biggest writing fear?
I ran a lively masterclass yesterday for a group of Irish writers. The subject was aligned with the W.R.I.T.E method of putting the writer first and sparked some interesting exchanges.
The one that was really interesting was when I asked participants to take 2 minutes to express their biggest writing fear, how that impacted them and, in one sentence, what action they could take to reduce or eliminated that fear.
It was fascinating how diverse their responses were. So I’d like to invite you to take 2 minutes to do the same. It’s not meant to be beautifully crafted prose, it needs to be raw straight from the heart/gut/soul. Ask yourself the difficult question.
They all committed to taking action on the fear and I’m looking forward to the feedback.
So do you feel up to naming and facing one of your writing fears… it can have a very positive impact on your writing if you tackle it
