The Stuck List Tool Kit

I’ve been skimming the edge of writerly burnout for months, and this book has arrived just when I needed it. It asks writers to question all of the assumptions we hold about who we are and who we’re supposed to be as writers. Using positive psychology, the book also asks that we focus on developing…

After loving the first two books in this series I bought this one on release day and started it not much later. This is another great book for authors. I love this series and I wish I could convince everyone to read these. Where book 1 and 2 address more general concepts that can easily…

As someone who entered burnout while working in the public accounting industry, I have to say, “This book isn’t just for writers!” Regardless of how you burned out, you’ll learn why it happened, what you can do to feel better, and how you can prevent it from happening again.

I really appreciated the multifaceted approach this book takes to Writer’s Block, including highlighting when writer’s block is a normal part of the writing process. It’s helpful to know different causes for writer’s block and how to confront them. Another great read in this series!

I really enjoyed all the books in this series, and this book is not an exception. I sent an excerpt to all of my friends about how stressful the industry is. I disagreed with her chapter on dictation, but it has been useful to explain river and train people to people for whom dictation doesn’t…

Writer’s block is such a hard thing to talk about because most of the industry tries to pretend it doesn’t exist and that if you are blocked you clearly aren’t trying hard enough. But it’s not that simple and Becca not only realizes that, in this book she shows you the many different things that…

This is one of the best non-fiction books I read so far. Not that I’ve read a lot of non-fiction books, but I’ve been reading more of them since this year and this one really stood out for me. One of the main reasons this one stood out to me is that something about this…
