| 6/23/26 | 282: 5 Mindsets That Separate Writers Who Finish From Those Who Don't | If you've been writing your novel or memoir for months, maybe even years, and you still can't seem to cross the finish line, this episode is for you. Because the writers who finish their books don't have more talent, time, or a better story concept. They're separated by how they think about the work while they're inside it. In this episode, I'm breaking down the five mindset shifts that make the difference. And the good news is that how you think is something you can always change. What You'l... | 15m 23s | ||||||
| 6/16/26 | #281. The Secret to Writing Unforgettable Secondary Characters | Every character in your story is living a full, invisible life - not just your protagonist. In this episode, I'm breaking down the three levels of character, why secondary characters so often fade into the background, and what you need to know about every person in your protagonist's orbit before you write them into a scene.

| 2/17/26 | #267: What to Cut From Your Novel and What to Keep: 3 Questions to Help You Decide | Every writer faces this moment: staring at a bloated manuscript, knowing something has to go, but terrified of making the wrong call.

| 2/10/26 | #266: 3 Ways To Amp Up Romantic Tension In Your Story | Many writers think romantic tension comes from obstacles keeping compatible people apart. A jealous ex. A misunderstanding. A job in another city. But that's not what makes readers ache for two people to get together. The love stories that work are doing something completely different. In this episode, I'm breaking down the three ways successful love stories create tension that feels genuine instead of manufactured.

Staring at a blank page afraid you'll write something bad? These look like different problems, but they're all the same issue: you're focused on outcomes instead of process. This episode reveals why you're stuck, shows you how to convert paralyzing questions into productive ones, and gives you a concrete action plan to get unstuck.
