    Episode 26 Find Your "Why" and Become a Purpose-Filled Writer

    SHOW NOTES Welcome to a brand-new year of Write, Writer, Write! with Deborah Froese—and an episode that begins with a deceptively simple question: Why do you write? Rather than leaning on resolutions or productivity promises for 2026, this conversation invites you to dig deeper and discover the purpose that keeps you showing up when inspiration fades and life gets busy. This episode introduces a new resource on Deborah's Substack: Wonder Prompts, https://deborahfroese.substack.com/s/wonder-prompts. Happy New Year!

    Episode 25: Follow the Friction

    In this episode of Write, Writer, Write! Deborah Froese explores how friction between characters—real or imagined—creates the momentum every compelling story needs. Instead of manufacturing tension through plot alone, she looks at how contrasting beliefs, desires, and emotional truths spark the kind of narrative energy that pulls readers forward. Through examples, reflection, and practical insight, she shows why following the friction leads to deeper, more resonant fiction.   Write, Writer, Write! returns in January, 2026.

    Episode 23: What Character Development Reveals About Us

    This episode of Write, Writer, Write! explores how character development reflects not only the people on the page but the writer behind them. Drawing on insights from Jordan Rosenfeld and Manuscript Momentum Challenge participant Katie Harbath, Deborah Froese looks at how the choices we make about character—real or imagined—reveal our values, assumptions, and emotional truths. She also shares how these qualities show up in her own work. The episode closes with a few reflection questions to help you discover what your characters reveal about you.
