Are You Really Waiting for the Right Life Circumstances to Start Writing? | Ep 82

Buildwriting

In this episode, I emphasize that there’s no perfect time to start writing—so stop waiting for the right circumstances. I use J.K. Rowling as an example of someone who wrote Harry Potter during tough times, showing the importance of using what you have and working with your current skills. I suggest setting small, achievable daily writing goals and making use of inconvenient times and places to write. Challenges can be inspiration, and creating a minimal writing space can help you get started. Remember, the right time to start writing is right now.
