| | | Fierce Love: Take a Stand for Yourself
Today it came to me: I stand for taking a stand for my creativity and for yours.
Do you believe in yourself enough to invest the time, energy, and resources to be the novelist you dream to be?
Believe me, I know how scary it is. Here's something I've not shared with you before: I was afraid to become the novelist I dreamed to be because I was afraid of becoming crazy. All those voices in my head, you know?
My fear was this nebulous thing -- something I never really examined, just felt.
But when I reached the crossroads of my life -- I share more about that here -- I realized that despite my fears, I had to seize my dream and live it, actually take action on it. Or, let it go completely. I decided to take action and live my dream of being a novelist, even though it was super scary.
What is one thing you can do today to take action on your dreams of becoming and being a novelists? |

Writers have told me that drafting their specific book writing plan helps them actually write their novel. So cool!

“Looking back over the past year of my association with Beth Barany as my writing coach and creativity muse, I can physically measure my personal and professional growth. I went from struggling writer to becoming an ePub’d writer with Beth’s help. With her invaluable help, I wrote a 1950s Los Angeles Noir Boxing/love story, and it was published August 2013. It was Beth’s belief in me and my talent that pushed me to work harder. I know I have changed as a writer. My confidence in my abilities to tell a story has grown phenomenally. I thank God for Beth’s help, caring, kick-in-the-butt techniques and her loving guidance. Thank you Beth, for helping me to believe in myself, my talent, and my goals.” – Carol Malone, Author, www.carolmalone.net
Best, Beth
