049 // How NOT Writing Can Make You a Better Writer

Today I don’t want to talk to you about writing or publishing. Don’t get me wrong. Those topics are still close to my heart and will continue to be core topics of the show. Just not today. Or next week.
You see, while on my two-month sabbatical, a lot happened in this magnificent little life of mine. I went on an epic backpacking adventure, finished reading a book on writing that is changing my approach to novel writing and started revolutionizing the way I think, the way I pray and the way I get work done.
And I learned that sometimes the most progress you make as a writer is when you are experiencing life. Listen to this quick episode to learn what I've been up to and how that translates into great things for YOU.
