Diary of a Writer

Scarlett Marie

People are fascinated with the idea of writing. So many people say, 'I want to write a novel,' but so few actually know what's entailed. The Diary of a Writer is an inside look at the life of a full-time writer, who's been writing for over a decade and actively publishing stories over that time. Messy, chaotic, vulnerable and exhausting, the Diary of a Writer, should not be read by the feint hearted. Ink will be spilt; fingers shall crack; pages will go missing.

    Strength and Weaknesses in Writing

    Send in a question about writing you'd like to see answered on the show! As a person, we have our strength and weaknesses. As creators, we also have our strength and weaknesses. However, this isn't a conversation we have a lot amongst creators. Perhaps it's because the majority of creators are so riddled with self-doubt, we don't even think it's possible to have any strengths in our creativity; but that in itself is worth addressing. Because as creators, we need to know our strengths and weaknesses.  If our desire is to create rounded projects without flaws that destroy the work, we need to know where our strengths and weaknesses lie.  💖🌷 Personal update - due to travel and sickness, episodes will be landing weekly throughout September🌷💖 🌟This episode will be available for every listener for the first three months from date of publication.

    Atmospheric Writing

    Send in a question about writing you'd like to see answered on the show! There are so many types of writers out in the world. There are the writers who love to do world building, who thrive with character dialogue, who get really into the layers of their character's personality and physical appearances, and then there's the writers who just have this incredible ability to create atmospheric sensations with their words.  But, like anything, when it comes to novel writing, there are good ways and bad ways to display your poetry like words. Of course, this is subjective on what does and doesn't work, but today we explore various mediums of art which have created projects that lean heavily on the atmospheric nature of their work and what went well and what didn't. 💖🌷 Personal update - due to travel and sickness, episodes will be landing weekly throughout September🌷💖  🌟This episode will be available for every listener for six months from the date of publication.
