Motivational Minute with Racquel Henry #159: Don’t Let Them Steal Your Hope

Racquel Henry, our fearless leader, returns for another Motivational Minute on Writer’s Atelier TV!

Today, the theme on our Instagram page is hope. Lately, Racquel is seeing a lot of social media posts from writers who have had their hope stolen from them—and the culprit can vary from changes in the traditional and indie publishing industries, to issues in the personal domain, to less-than-stellar news about a particular project.

But you mustn’t let outside factors diminish the hopes you have for your writing dream. At the end of the day, it’s one of the few things we have left.

Of course you should keep up with the industry, but don’t let what you hear break your spirit. As we say so often around here, the world needs your voice!

Happy writing!
