I absolutely loved this episode. As a novice writer, I am on to my third listen and plan to go for seven times in a row. (Using a rule of thumb that you you have to listen to something seven times for it to stick!)
Countless times, I thought I should quit my scrappy first draft because I didn’t follow process “advice”. I now give myself permission to carry on with the mantra that no words or effort is wasted.

My writing metaphor is “Trust Myself”.
PS I love the Anatomy of Prose – I have left a 5 star review even though I know you won’t read it. 🙂
