The writing I avoided for two years made me a better writer.

I avoided writing call recaps much like I avoided parts of my book.

Somewhere deep down, I felt fear—maybe even shame—that I wasn’t a good enough writer.

Until my mentor Chas Hoppe reminded me of this very crucial element.

Good writing isn’t about a fancy English degree.

It’s about clear communication.

And my style?

It was simply how I spoke.

That changed everything.

With the help of Emily Gindlesparger and Chas Hoppe, I kept writing.

I stopped avoiding.

And over time, I got better.

Avoidance happens to every author.

It’s why so many manuscripts sit half-finished, collecting dust.

Chas and I recently broke this down—why we avoid it and how to push through.

If your book is sitting untouched, I hope this helps you dust it off and get back into the flow.
