This week's podcast is from the Writing Secrets book.
My plans have changed for this book. Instead of being part of a bundle, I'll be launching a Kickstarter for this book. (Why not practice my Kickstartering?) So keep an eye out for that. (Yes, I will learn how to share a link before next week's podcast.)
Enjoy!

The Transcript:
This is 60 Seconds of Writing in Public with Johanna Rothman for April 17, 2026, where I read an excerpt of just a minute of some writing in progress.
This is part of the upcoming Writing Secrets book.
Writers have this problem because they often write alone. In contrast, collaborative teams rarely have this problem because people can rely on each other when their self-esteem suffers.
That lack of self-esteem can drive Imposter Syndrome, which can prevent a writer from writing.
Too often, writers let their fear win.
You don't have to succumb to that fear—you can fool that fear with writing. Writing and publishing will build your self-esteem. Yes, the more you write and publish, the less you allow your Imposter Syndrome to win.
