There's so much more to writing a novel than simply getting stoked up to write, or fleshing out the themes and plots of our books.
What actually makes us creative? What gives us the inspiration and drive to write a book?
That, my friend, would be how we look after ourselves mentally, physically, and spiritually. What we do in every area of our lives matters - and effects our ability to create.
I've wanted to make a video about mindful self care for creative writers for a while now, and I thought what better time to share it than "preptober"?
I know a ton of you are getting ready to head into a month of fevered writing, but don't forget to prep more than just your novel. It's so incredibly important to also show yourself some TLC. And I hope this video will provide you with a bit of inspiration to do just that!
What is YOUR favorite SELF CARE practice? Tell me below, I would love to hear it!
stay stoked!
