Description
From the comfort of a recliner Rachael Herron writes about her obsessions, whatever the thing is that has captured her interest, the thing that she's thinking about when she can't fall asleep--and then she gets down to the writing business working on deadlines, revisions, her podcast or classes that are coming up.
Herron who produces her podcast Ink In Your Veins and has traditionally and self-published a range of fiction and nonfiction books, says she is "highly distractible" so she puts boundaries or "guardrails" in place so she can get the writing done each day. And while she has always wanted to be a writer, 99 percent of the time while she is writing she says she feels like a fraud or a terrible writer. Now she recognizes that this feeling is normal, it's part of the process, and that has helped her become comfortable in those feelings of discomfort that many writers experience.
