    #297 – Fueling Your Creative Fire: Stats, Strategies, and Celebrating Writing Wins (Free-Writing Session)

    Welcome to episode 297 of the Spun Today Podcast! I'm your host, Tony Ortiz, and in this free writing session, we're diving into the intersection of motivation, creativity, and the craft of writing. In this episode, I'll share my own writing journey, including detailed stats on how I've been keeping up with my writing goals—even amid holidays and life's curveballs. I'll talk about the process of revamping and self-publishing my first book, "Make Way for You," and discuss the labor—and breakthroughs—of translating it into Spanish using cutting-edge AI tools. You'll get a practical, behind-the-scenes look at modern self-publishing, from designing your own covers with new technologies to making your stories accessible in multiple languages. I'll also pass along an essential writing tip inspired by the age-old practice of keeping a commonplace book—a method that has fueled some of today's most prolific authors. Plus, we're diving into Omar El Akkad's powerful new book, "One Day Everyone Will Have Always Been Against This." I'll unpack some of its most striking passages—not just for their social and political weight, but for the craft behind them—and extract actionable lessons for writers seeking resonance and precision. To round things out, I'll read one of my own reflective free writing pieces, exploring the balance between accomplishment and the creative hunger for what's next.
