Can I hear you say “struggle bus”?

Because I’ve had a seat right up front for the last three months.

This new episode of Behind Clothes Doors has put up a fight. The title came to me quite effortlessly after a conversation with one of my clients, but the actual writing of it has been kicking my a$%.

I wish I could paint a beautiful picture for you of a writer in quiet solitude divining inspiration from the creative muse. But my actual writing method is mess-y.

It’s chaotic and sporadic. I talk to myself a lot. I have to pick ideas up and put them down and toss them around a bit. But one thing I pride myself on is my tenacity. I can come back to the same things again, and again, and again … and again.

It takes some determination to continue to go back to things that are frustrating and annoying, and especially, when it feels like they’re just not working.

But I have a trick up my sleeve (pun absolutely intended) to help you do the things you don’t really want to do. Listen to my new episode here!

You’ve got this!
