Tips & Thoughts from Joanna
Writer’s Block: I deal with writer’s block by Not dealing with it. If I have something to say or write down, I write it. If nothing comes to mind, I don’t write. I don’t beat myself up about it anymore or worry about meeting personal deadlines. I write when my mind is flowing. And when my mind isn’t – I don’t write.
On Becoming a Writer: Anybody can write with a little help from a good editor/proofreader – and determination. Everybody has a book in them. You just have to tap into your inner self. That secret diary or journal is a novel waiting to happen! Trust and Believe!
On being a self-published/indie author: Having the freedom to create my own storylines, characters, and the fate of their lives without the pressure of an agent wanting me to imitate a certain image that is not me, being able to have full ownership of my creativity…..is priceless.
