#116 :: The Courage to Call Yourself a Writer | Amy Alkon
The Secret Library Podcast - A podcast by Caroline Donahue - Thursdays
I saw Amy Alkon speak at the LA Times Festival of Books and was delighted with her talk on her book, Unf*ckology, which breaks down the science of building up courage. Here, I thought, was a person who can address this fear so many people have of calling themselves writers. I was right in guessing she'd have a lot to say on the topic, but we went so much further into how to trick your brain into being brave, what routines help jump-start Amy's writing day (one of my favorite writing routines EVER). Plus Amy is very funny. I adored her and this conversation, and I know you will too. Happy listening! Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information. This is a public episode.
