    30: The 3 Pillars of Amplification

    30: The 3 Pillars of Amplification

    This episode is for the writer who wants to write smarter, not harder. We are continuing this conversation about how to amplify your writing time and energy, and this week I have three pillars of amplification for you to take and implement into your writing life right now. Why spend time figuring out all the things on your own, when you could learn how to work with your brain, with your support system, and with other writers like you so that you can make the most of every single writing session. All of these pillars feed wonderfully into my memoir fundamentals course, North Star. You don't have to do this alone, writer.
