  • What's Important About Small Goals

    What's Important About Small Goals
    Nov 8 2022

    When we set out to write a novel, we have one goal, which is to write a novel. But we also know that having the goal of writing a novel is not unlike standing at the foot of a mountain with the plan to climb it. We know it’s going to be amazing at the top but, man, that’s a long, hard path to climb. 

    So today we’re going to talk about setting small goals along the way. Writing a novel is hard, and fear is part of the journey FOR EVERYONE. The way to accomplish it is to not focus only on the finish line, but on landmarks that are as close together as you need them to be.

I love Stephanie’s advices

I’m a writer who has been struggling to write. Stephanie has helped me so much getting unstuck and believe in myself. Her voice and content is like a hug, embracing me and telling me that everything is going to be ok. I can’t recommend this podcast enough, and I’m so sad that she has decided to stop making it.
