Day 1: Goal Setting with Kelly Ford
Listened to the recording, and loved every minute of it. My approach to writing is similar to Kelly's, and I feel very validated in my "can't write everyday" life with lots of paying work and other passions that take time ... but also the "work on the novel everyday" rule which saves me. I concur that it's important to do SOMETHING related to the project every single day. Looking forward to tomorrow!
Just listened. So good! It's always so wonderful to feel like you're part of a community. Thanks for that!
