Elisabeth and Merianna talk about the mental monsters that start to creep in when you are trying to write every day and you have set a goal for yourself. The talk about slaying the monsters that say it has to be perfect on the first draft and the monsters who say you can’t be a writer. They talk about big brackety notes as part of writing the first draft. They also talk about how the writing process can be a lot more like a rodeo rather than a pleasant ride through the countryside.
