Here is your weekly dose of inspiration for Christian writers! Enjoy!
Hey there, Christian Indies,
The title of this episode is a lie. Well, not really, only sort of. Let me explain.
When we were planning the upcoming book, “30 Days to a Writing Sprint Habit,” I undertook the task of writing about that glorious time in a young author’s life when the birds are chirping, the sky is blue, and everything’s coming up roses. You’ve mastered word sprints and are writing like a maniac! You’re writing daily now, and instead of seeing the timer as a task-master, you are now seeing it as your friend, companion, and a sort of inanimate accountability partner.
But what happens when you find yourself outgrowing your writing sprint groups? Or maybe you’ve crafted an entire story in the twenty minutes you just spent writing, or realize that your regular sprinting has netted you enough words to create a short novel?
If this is where you find yourself, it may be time for you to move ‘beyond’ sprinting in the traditional sense and begin thinking about the ways you can be more intentional during your sprinting time. We’re not saying to unleash the inner editor, and undo all the hard work you did getting that nasty booger all tied up in the first place, but we are suggesting you take a moment, and consider with us the writing possibilities that await you beyond the word sprint.
See you there,
Jamie
