I want to tell you about an invaluable writing asset.
It’s become a non-negotiable element of my writing process, and I hope it becomes the same for you.
Writing is hard work. It’s not hard like electrical engineering (a chapter in my past life), which was a mind-numbing, sleep-depriving, hair-pulling kind of hard.
Writing is more a sweet torture, soreness-post-crazy-workout kind of hard.
You know the routine: The words get stuck. The ideas get jammed. The mind gets cluttered, and you get discouraged.
