Our poetry coach, Caroline Goodwin, published a new poem!
"I assume that by reading this blog, you’ve reached some level of recognition or acceptance that you (yes, you) have an art monster. Maybe it’s still a cute tiny thing, like a baby tiger blind to the world. Or maybe it’s just a quiet voice that you only hear when everything else has stilled." We love this blog post on the monster inside artists, by coach Diana Xin.
New today on the OneRoom blog, from coach Diana Xin:
Rejection is hard! Keep submitting.
Our new fiction coach, Courtney Bird, recently shared this with her members. Elizabeth Gilbert is great at talking about creative fear.
Susan Orlean can teach us a lot about writing.
Take solace: self doubt is totally normal.
Big fans of the YA crossover!
One of our favorite reminders!
Need some motivation and inspiration? Or just a reason to take a break? Check out our series of resources to keep you writing.
We believe in creating a writing community. Coach Erica Wright reminds us why it's so important. "We can handle the loneliness of our writing room, but what about when we’re done for the day?"
"Most practicing writers only write for 14 hours per day, and often in smaller chunks."
Revisiting this new year post about developing a writing practice in the new year. "Say, more than anything, you’ve always wanted to be a writer. Why? Because you love books, words, stories, poems. Why? Because of the empathy, transcendence, and solace they can bring to the world. Just guessing, here."
The life of a writer isn't only about writing. Walking, communing with other writers, and sleep will all contribute to your work.
