À propos de ce contenu audio

Many aspiring writers believe they need to reach some imaginary level of expertise before they are qualified to write a book. In this episode of Write With Me, Krissy Nelson explores the second major barrier that keeps writers stuck: self-doubt. Through her work with authors, Krissy has heard the same questions again and again: Who am I to write this book? What if someone else knows more than I do? Am I really qualified to share this? But the truth is, most authors are not writing from the top of the mountain. They are writing from somewhere along the trail—simply a few steps ahead of their reader. Readers aren’t always looking for perfection. Often they’re looking for someone who understands what they’re going through. Your experiences, lessons, and perspective may be exactly what someone else needs to hear.
