About this listen

If you aren't suffering, you aren't creating. Right?

Wrong!

Writing can and should be joyful, fulfilling ... even fun! Applicable to writers in all genres and disciplines – from screenwriters to novelists, journalists to picture book authors, aspiring to many-times published – The Happy Writer is a heartfelt and optimistic guide that will show you the way to a happier writing journey.

Part craft guide, part writing coach and part cheerleader, this audiobook offers useful advice on a slew of common writing and publishing ailments, such as how to end procrastination, how to build a social media platform that reflects your personality, how to get your imagination to overflow with new ideas, how to listen to your intuition when receiving a critique on your work, how to overcome impostor syndrome, what to do when you're stuck in the query trenches, and so much more.

Known in writers' circles as a generous mentor, Meyer shares stories from her own writing path to help every writer discover the ultimate joys of living their best writing life.
