[You Can, Toucan] New fun resource for you (and the new site is up)

Published about 1 month ago • 2 min read

A NEWSLETTER FOR BUSY AUTHORS BY A BUSY AUTHOR!

Hi Reader!

After last week’s email I am pleased and proud to announce, the new website is up and running. Though the launch of it did not go to plan, sometimes you just have to roll with it, right?

Just like when your characters take over your book, or your muse introduces a new mysterious figure lurking in the shadows and causing strife for a secondary character which thence causes feelings of unease and distrust in your main character… (not that that’s ever happened, haha cry).

After two years of creating things, going through the book coach certification lessons, learning from the “wrong” people… I finally feel like I might maybe must have a handle on how I feel I can best serve you.

Things will be organized as follows:

  • The Beginning - ideas, idea development, starting out, etc.
  • The Middle - creating a writing habit, getting through the murky middle, persevering, rescuing your story, reigniting your spark, etc.
  • The End - reaching The End, revising, useful tools and tactics to make your manuscript shine, etc.
  • Writing Life - updates on my own writing progress and processes
  • Coaching - mini-book coaching things, lessons learned that will help you, anything related to my products and services, coaching myself through my own processes so you know I practice what I preach (yes, this is coming soon).

Along with the launch of the new website, I have a new free (for now) resource that falls into The Beginning category.

I give to thee, The Novel-Worthy Idea Workbook! (the link will take you to a page to sign up through my learning platform).

The Novel-Worthy Idea Workbook will help you gain clarity in your story spark and confidence in your novel idea, plus build a deep foundation that will resonate with your readers.

Go on! Get it today before I change my mind about making it free!

That’s it for today, friend. I hope you’re having a wonderful week and wish you the flow state every writer craves!

Keep writing!

Claire

Finally Write Your Novel Hi Reader! Two years ago I started this mission to coach busy authors to create a consistent and sustainable writing habit. I conducted a writing habits survey. I published a book. I released what became a free mini-course. The cherry on top of this habit creating ice cream sundae? I launched the Busy Author Toolbox. Scroll down for a TL;DR... Why I created the Busy Author Toolbox So often in my time as a writer, I’ve heard other writers talk about how they don’t have...

Finally Write Your Novel Hi Reader! Okay okay before you get all up in arms about that subject line, let me set the record straight! Writers block is absolutely real. The first time I heard someone say it isn't, I thought to myself, “Bull—“ (you know what!) They pointed me to a podcast, as if someone having a podcast made them the say all be all of everything writing. It was a load of the formerly expressed Bull. Writer’s block is real. Now it may not always be tied to a mystical muse going...

Finally Write Your Novel Hi Reader! Growing up, my dad used to play Winston Bishop style April Fools pranks, and he often enlisted us kids (three of us) to help him pull off his schemes, which were always aimed at our mom. That was back in the 80s and 90s before the internet was a real thing. Now April Fools is a series of weird email subject lines, news headlines, and fake stuff, which irritates the hell out of me (am I a curmudgeon because of that?). Therefore, I will not be playing any...
