Writer.
When people ask what we do, that's the answer we want to give.
Then additional questions come: How many books have we written? How often do we write? Where do we get our ideas? How did we start writing? What do we do about writer's block?
We sputter answers because we haven't really changed from thinking like a Hobby Writer to acting like a Professional Writer.
Transforming into a Pro Writer is the goal ... and Think like a Pro will guide us through that transformation.
In seven lessons of practical application, Think like a Pro will change our mindset from Hobby Writer to Pro Writer. At that point, we look to the future: writing full-time, publishing several books a year, and living our lifelong dream.
The seven lessons are presented in seven chapters.
One Scary Word covers deadlines. One Latin Phrase is Nulla dies sine linea, the mantra of several writers, including Leo Tolstoy: No Day without Lines. One Guiding Decision examines plot options to structure our writing. One Ancient Greek gives us Aristotle, the first to understand that characters drive our stories. One Simple Injunction tells us the reason that Writer's Block Doesn't Exist. One Slice of Advice explores how creativity can be sparked. reminds us that we have One Resolution: Be a Writer.
