I'm testing out a new writing routine! It's a "small" change, really just combining several habits into one flow, but let's just say I'm still struggling with it. Y'all get to be my accountability buddies as I trial and error my way through!
0:00 Starting my new writing routine! (Don't mind all the yawns bahaha)
2:49 The writing community
6:06 Disappearing pens
7:08 My approach to achieving writing goals (which is usually why I change my routine in the first place!)
8:28 Destination Goals vs. Journey Goals
9:01 There's never too much banter
9:06 One of my big "30 for 30" goals & new routine, Day 2!
12:36 Creative exhaustion after finishing projects...
14:06 How my mental health & emotional well-being affect my writing schedule
18:19 Collaborating with other authors!
20:08 Knowing when to shelve projects...
23:40 Questions for youuuu & wrap-up!

D I S C U S S I O N Q U E S T I O N S :
Have you started (or wanted to start) a new writing routine lately?? What's it look like and how's that going?
Do you have any BAD writing habits you're trying to get rid of?
How do you become more involved in the writing community? (Bonus! Where do you feel most involved? Where do you share the most?)
Why can we never find our pens?
What is your approach to achieving writing goals?
Is there such thing as TOO much banter!?
Do you ever feel creatively exhausted after completing a goal, draft, project, book, etc.??
How does your mental health affect your writing schedule? When mental health "gets in the way," how do you find your way back to writing and get into a routine again?
