Becoming the writer you want to be

Eleven questions to help you move from wanting to write to building a writing life

Many people dream of writing. They imagine the book they will create “one day”. Some actually start writing. Far fewer follow through and finish.

If you dream of being a writer, there are steps you should be taking now to ensure you’re one of the finishers. Because becoming a writer starts long before you ever complete a

manuscript.

• Do you want to be a writer? 
• Is your mindset holding you back?

It’s not a question of waiting for permission, inspiration, or the perfect moment. It’s about developing the habits, mindset, and confidence that allow you to begin and keep you motivated to continue when the initial enthusiasm wears off.

This book contains eleven short reflections that encourage you to explore some of the things that separate a person who wants to write from someone who is actively building a writing life.

If you want to build a writing life, this is the starting point.
