68. Prioritizing your passion: Writing while parenting

Parents Who Write

Do you ever feel like you're drowning under the pressure to be a perfect parent, spouse, and—on top of that—a creative writer? 

In today’s episode, host Erin P.T. Canning and fellow Fantasy Author Michelle Summers share their experiences and strategies for balancing writing with family life. 

Through this conversation, listeners will discover how Michelle and Erin combat the pressure to do it all, how to prioritize tasks in a way that refills your creative cup, and how to jump start the creative writing process. 

Bonus: Listeners will learn about the concept of a discovery draft, a technique between outlining and a first draft that allows for flexibility and exploration.
