In this episode I chat with NYT Bestselling Author Steve Almond on Imposter Syndrome and Writing for Your Life
He will also be a featured presenter at the Redwood Branch of The California Writers Club on July 20, 2024.
CWC Members and non members can register here https://www.redwoodwriters.org/, to see Steve in-person or listen to a recording of his talk a week after the event.
Steve Almond, author of Truth Is the Arrow, Mercy Is the Bow, will discuss the emotional struggles that we bring to our writing, everything from the anxiety of exposure to the crippling doubts that drive us into writer’s block—without judgment or platitudes. No question is off limits: Can I tell the truth about my abusive parent? Is it wrong to be jealous of a famous friend? What if I’m just not good enough? At the center of our discussion is radical question: Is it possible to view moments, and even eras, of creative doubt as necessary and even essential to our artistic growth? How can we move from anxiety and self-loathing to a posture of forgiveness and curiosity.
