S3E48 - The Psychology of Writing - Pt 3 Stamina

In this episode we continue a short series on the psychology of writing. What stories do we tell ourselves when we tell stories? Writing a novel is a long business, and at some point, you're going to hit snags. Your enthusiasm or confidence might lag. Different writers typically have different points where they hit 'the Wall'. What can you do when it feels like your book has come off the rails? What can we learn from ultrarunners about the art of pushing through? This is a great episode to listen to if you're thinking 'help! I'm stuck with my novel!' or you have problems finishing things.
