60. Crafting your writer's resolution: 6 steps to writing success in the new year

It’s that time of year again when we ponder what we want to achieve in the new year. For parents who write, our lives are exceptionally busy, so planning our writing goals is crucial to our success. However, we also need to intentionally set writing goals that we can realistically achieve. 

So if you haven’t already sat down to plan out your writing goals for the new year, use this template that is tried, tested, and true. Help set yourself up for success and ensure that whatever story is living inside of you does, in fact, come to life.

Topics discussed in this episode: 

• Digging deep into why you write
• Setting realistic goals
• Tracking your progress
• Planning ahead
• Identifying potential obstacles and solutions
• Finding the right accountability community
• Conquering self-doubt
• Telling your inner judge to wait their turn
• Identifying your audience
• Connecting with one person
• Redefining what it means to be a writer
