Quick Recap

What You Will Learn?

  • How many books have you left half completed?.
  • Having successfully published five books, I speak from experience when I say that there is always a reason not to finish your current writing project: A lack of inspiration. Family commitments taking priority. Work pressure derailing your flow. Inadequate writing space, routines or habits. A perceived (or actual) deficit in the necessary talent. Low self-worth or confidence detracting from your belief about the project. Writers block..
  • Yet every single one of these can be overcome. Just watch an interview of any best-selling author and you will discover that they too had a plethora of issues that they managed to overcome in order to complete their masterpieces..
  • You can do it too. In this course I will breakdown the approach I use to consistently get the words on the page, as well as how I have learnt to accept when a project is good enough to be considered complete. So if you are struggling to balance creating against an overactive perfectionist drive, this course is for you. Alternatively if you find that you are not even managing to schedule the time to sit down for your craft, or if you can but are not able to get started, this course has you covered..
  • By the end of this course, you will have the tools, tricks, techniques, and habits necessary to finish. Your mindset will be on point and you will be motivated to write..
  • I look forward to reading your masterpieces!.
