Creative Principles

Ep250 - Audiobook Teaser ‘Ink by the Barrel' & Celebrate 250 Episodes!

11 Feb 2021

Description

What separates the hobbyist writer from the prolific professional? That’s the question my new book, Ink by the Barrel, aspires to answer, thanks to a decade of research, and these 250 episodes on the podcast. Here’s a quick teaser for this audiobook sampler: For the first decade of my career, I felt like a hobbyist, posing as a professional. If you enjoy writing - or even despise it but feel drawn to the page - you probably know the feeling. Incomplete scripts and outlines fill your computer... Notepads of half-written, half-baked ideas fill your desk... Your mind constantly races with “what if” ideas when you fall in love with a new genre... Unfortunately, all of these scenarios are nothing more than the dreams of hobbyist. Sure, there’s nothing wrong with being a hobbyist. It gives you something to do. But, it doesn’t really get you anywhere... It’s not remarkable... It’s not particularly rewarding... It’s also not very fulfilling... To move from the amateur to the professional, it’s quite a jarring journey because it feels like something is simply... well, missing. What’s missing can be developed by using the “Creative Principles” from within Ink by the Barrel. If you wish to finish your first fulfilling project... If you wish to become a professional... If you wish to be prolific... Then it’s time to buy your ink by the barrel.
