Writers! You Must Have This Toolbox To Help You Enjoy Every Writing Session.
A Free PDF Gift From Me To You
For SIX YEARS!, I have been beating around the Writing bush, trying to write my novel.
I was listening to advice from numerous fellow and aspiring writers on how to write a novel. I have spent hours pouring over blogs, books, videos, and courses, frantically making notes and figuring out how to write the next best detective novel.
I tried out every workbook and worksheet. I tried outlining. I tried putting myself on a deadline. I publicly announced on my Instagram that I was working on my novel, hoping that fear of public humiliation would get me to finish my novel.
And I failed.
I felt I was worthless and no good as a writer. I felt no matter how hard I tried, I would never write my novel. I even thought that maybe... I was not a writer, after all.
But the voice inside me said otherwise.
"You wouldn't have this dream if you didn't have what it takes to be a writer?"
I thank the stars for the voice, and I thank myself for listening to that voice. Because of this soft, subtle, yet persistent voice, I never gave up on myself and the writer within.
Six years I spent doing an archaeological excavation inside me to find who I am as a human and a writer.
The big, overarching lesson I learned during this time is when you dream of becoming a writer, it is never about the book you want to write.
Writing and publishing a book is a milestone on the writing journey, not the goal or the finish line.
The goal is to become a writer - a person who writes.
Becoming a writer and having a book written are completely different goals and therefore need entirely different mindsets.
Over the last year, I found bits and pieces of the becoming-a-writer mindset. These, like a jigsaw puzzle, fit perfectly together and became my Writer's Mental Toolbox.
This toolbox has helped me kickstart my writing journey in the real, physical sense.
I have written over 200 essays about life lessons, writing, creative life, books and reading consistently since August 2021. I have written 19 short stories (and counting). I have made over 1300 friends in my first year of writing online (I don't like the word "followers") who resonate with my words. I have been fortunate enough to have four of my essays go viral. I have also already brainstormed 48 out of 77 essays for 2023. And I am happy to say I reignited my passion for writing crime fiction and am currently working on a novel.
All thanks to my toolbox.
And now I am giving it to you.
A Writer's Mental Toolbox To Enjoy Every Writing Session is a free PDF document in which I share 18 tools that have helped me write and enjoy every writing session.
These tools have helped me stay on the same page with my writer soul and write words that have the capacity to heal the person who reads them and me. And I am so excited to see all the words we will write together through our journey.
Who is this toolbox for?
If you feel lost, confused and frustrated as a writer...
If no writing advice out there is helping you...
If you feel writing is a pain in the butt...
If you feel worthless as a writer...
Then, this toolbox is for you.
This toolbox will show you that becoming a writer is not hard. With the 18 tools, you can use whichever and whenever you require and have the most satisfying writing session.
Now, this is no magic pill. Working with this mental toolbox will take time to get used to. But once you figure out its usefulness, you'll never miss any of your writing sessions.
Let me repeat this. The dream and goal is not to write a book but to become a writer - a person who writes. FOR LIFE.
And A Writer's Mental Toolbox To Enjoy Every Writing Session can help you do that.
Why did I create this PDF?
Because I am tired of hearing heartbreaking stories of writers who are not able to write. I know how it feels to be in such a position. I crawled out of that feeling through my blood, sweat and (many, many) tears, and I don't want my writer friends to go through that.
I want to help you escape that miserable, stuck place with this PDF.
