S353 - After The War (Writing Ramble)
In this unscripted, unedited episode I talk about why it can be so hard to let go of old habits when we're writing, and how harsh self-criticism can feel like a safety net, even when it prevents us from learning, planning and creating.

If you'd like to support me, it'd be ace if you picked up a copy of my novels, THE HONOURS, & the new sequel THE ICE HOUSE.
