‘Fearless Writing’ presents a new way of looking at writing. While there are many craft and publishing books for writers, ‘Fearless Writing’ tackles the writer’s psyche. It explores the common fears all writers share–rejection, embarrassment, shame–and uses practical advice and exercises to dispel doubts and build confidence. With an emphasis on writing to fulfil your own expectations rather than someone else’s, ‘Fearless Writing’ reveals the secret to writing without fear: Embrace your own imagination and curiosity.
‘Fearless Writing’ presents an altogether different view of the writing process. Rather than focusing solely on the writing process or the writing life, it combines the two with an emphasis on embracing the process. It addresses writers paralysed by writer’s block, those afraid to share their work, and those writing for publication rather than passion. It presents a new way of looking at the writing life, one that is enjoyable, obtainable, and fuelled by emotional engagement and curiosity.
‘Fearless Writing’ begins by dispelling common myths and fears about writing. It teaches writers to feel first and write second, to rely on instinct, and write what you love rather than what you know or what you believe can be published. Once writers have embraced their own passion for the story, the book builds on emotional engagement and craft by asking writers to examine the emotional significance of stories with the three-arc approach and implement conflicting emotions in their stories. Finally, authors are encouraged to embrace marketing with the same confidence and passion by finding an audience that shares their enthusiasm rather than changing themselves to fit an audience.
