Motivational Minute #170: Writer, Trust Your Skillset

Another Monday, another Motivational Minute from Racquel Henry on Writer’s Atelier TV! Can you believe we’re over halfway to our 200th episode? Neither can we!

This week is about confidence. It’s about owning the fact that you have the skillset to figure out whatever it is you need to figure out in your writing and your writing career.

Often, Racquel will find herself in the clutches of imposter syndrome. We have all—yes, all, even your very favorite writer who couldn’t possibly—feared for our writing careers at some point in our lives.

But your unique skillset as a writer is what makes your writing, well, your writing. It’s what makes your stuff so special, even if you can’t see that right this second. Learn how to trust that. It will guide you towards making the right decisions.

Or should we say, the write decisions? (We should!)

Happy writing!

If you want inspiration offline, have you heard that Racquel has written a mini book of affirmations for writers? It’s available in our shop, along with our new 90-Day Novel Planner and The Write Gym Workbook!

We’d love to have you involved in our online writing community! Thanks for everything!
