Jealousy and Exhaustion with Marjan Kamali, Liesl Swogger, and Alex Ferraro

From the "What's Holding You Back?" Writing Challenge Series

Jealousy and Exhaustion are two of the most common, and most difficult, obstacles to deal with in your writing career, yet we all suffer from them at one time or another. How do you tamp down your jealousy of other writers when the feeling makes you feel like an awful person in the first place? How do you deal with the long process of writing and publishing when you’re already exhausted by the idea of it? We’ve got writers Marjan Kamali, Liesl Swogger, and Alex Ferraro to help us out.
