This is What a Writer Looks Like: Developing the Mindset to Start and Finish your Manuscript

An online course

Often the thing that holds creatives back from writing a novel, a memoir, a self-help guide, or a collection of poems is not coming up with the idea. Ideas are the easy part. Where most people struggle is the execution of the idea.

 

This is where having a creative mindset comes into play. A creative mindset allows a writer to not only develop the idea, but to create actionable steps, set reasonable goals, give themselves permission to be creative.

 

Developing a creative mindset will help you not only start your project but give yourself the necessary endurance to finish a project.

  • Turning on the Creativity Tap

  • Organizing your time, space, and materials
