Recording: When Your Book Hates You and Other Challenges to Lasting Creativity with Grace Burrowes
Our objective as authors is to write one good book, but the stretch goal is usually to follow that up with more good books. In an ideal world, our creativity works like the Sorcerer's Apprentice, so the writing matures from a tantalizing trickle to a mighty river of beautiful prose and brilliant plots.
The world is not ideal. Slumps happen, life intrudes, the gears of inspiration need lubrication. Grace Burrowes, author of more than one hundred books, will discuss the habits that characterize creative people, how to adapt those habits to the writing life, and how to avoid writing "the same book twenty times."
