Ever notice how the moment you decide to take your writing seriously, your brain immediately auditions a panel of imaginary critics?

In this episode of From Writer to Author: The Podcast, we’re talking about one of the biggest momentum-killers for writers: the three-headed monster—fear of judgment, fear of criticism, and (the one that stings in a very specific way) the fear of being ignored.

If you’ve been holding back from sharing your words, pitching your book idea, hitting “publish,” or even finishing the draft because you’re worried what people will think—or that no one will think anything at all—this episode is for you.

You’ll walk away with a steadier mindset, practical ways to keep moving forward anyway, and the confidence to stay in the work… because becoming an author requires courage, not perfection.

If you’ve ever thought your writing habits were a little strange… this episode is about to make you feel much better.

In this fun, New Year's episode of From Writer to Author, we’re taking a lighter turn and exploring the surprisingly odd, quirky, and downright unexpected habits of famous authors. From unusual routines to creative rituals that make you go, “Wait… seriously?” this episode is equal parts entertaining and reassuring.

But beneath the humor is an important reminder: there is no “right” way to be a writer. Creativity doesn’t follow rules, and the process rarely looks neat or normal — even for the most successful authors in history. If you’ve ever worried that your habits mean you’re doing it wrong, this episode will help you laugh, relax, and embrace your own creative quirks.

Consider this a permission slip to write your way, trust your process, and end the year smiling instead of second-guessing yourself.

It’s light. It’s fun. And it’s the perfect reminder that writers have always been a little weird — and that might just be part of the magic.

🎧 Press play and prepare to say, “Okay… maybe I’m not that strange after all.”

Every writer—no matter how new, experienced, talented, or successful—has questioned whether they truly belong in the writing world. Maybe you’ve felt it, too: that quiet worry that you’re not “qualified” enough, not “skilled” enough, or not “legit” enough to call yourself a writer. It’s that uncomfortable inner voice that whispers, “Who do you think you are?”

In this episode of From Writer to Author, we’re opening up a grounded, reassuring conversation about the complicated relationship writers have with their own self-worth. Imposter syndrome doesn’t care about talent or accomplishments—its only job is to make you doubt the very identity you’re working so hard to build. But here’s the good news: the doubt you feel is far more normal than you think, and it says a lot more about your growth than it does about your abilities.

This episode explores the deeper emotional patterns behind imposter syndrome and why it shows up at every stage of the writing journey—from the first idea all the way to publication and beyond. You’ll learn how universal these feelings really are, why they don’t mean what you think they mean, and how understanding them can help you write with more confidence, clarity, and resilience.

If you’ve ever felt like you’re pretending…
If you’ve ever felt like you’re “not enough”…
If you’ve ever worried someone will “find you out”…
this episode will remind you that you’re not alone, not behind, and absolutely not an imposter.

This is a gentle, validating, and empowering conversation designed to help you reclaim your confidence and step more fully into the identity of “writer”—with pride, not hesitation.

Press play when you’re ready to breathe a little easier.
