Sitemap - 2024 - Writing for Weird Times by Amy Guth
New year, same you (but rested)
Are you lying to yourself creatively?
For days when you feel like creative garbage
Finding visibility for your work
Where does your work fit into all of this?
The problem in this field is...
Putting your work out into the world
What do you want to do after you get what you want?
What do you stand for/against as a writer?
Skipping unwanted creative valleys
Goals are yours not capitalism’s
What do you fear wanting success might mean?
Unhelpful beliefs about kicking ass with your creative work
Who do you think you need to be?
"That always happens to throw me off"
When even a small thing can made shifts
Creative goals, free of assumptive targets
Where you feel and cultivate self-trust
A thing by which to vanquish fear
What do you want to say instead?
That narrative might just be wrong
Freaking out over natural phenomena
Rooting out subconscious self-sabotage
What you've always known about yourself
If everyone else jumped off a bridge...
Adding new layers to build on older writing
Write (that book proposal) already
What would you say if you dgaf
Dreaded obligation v. great, important work
Dignity is a hella powerful word
Self-discipline is only part of the thing
Giving purely for the sake of giving
Living under expectations and such
Holding space for vulnerability
Not reinventing the idea wheel
Not the curveball but the reaction to it
That didn't work out as planned
Where small change has happened
Naming your wins straightforwardly
Personal stories of big events
Seeing what you've already written
Consistency from self-knowledge
Time out, oh, very demanding person
"I want that, now let me sabotage it"
Convincing ourselves of nonsense
Eating caterpillars in the name of gratitude
