What I Have Learned About Supporting Other Writers
And how it might change your writing and work
Three years ago, I saw other authors as competition.
I’m not sure why. Maybe it was the culture I was brought up in, jealousy of how others were doing compared to me, or simply vanity.
Whatever it was, it was a bad attitude and a toxic trait.
Looking back, it was why some of my creative endeavors failed. I wasn’t connecting when influential writers and authors wanted to connect with me.
Because of this bad attitude, my growth stagnated, and I started to see a drop in book sales, views, reads, and engagement.
Fast Forward to the End of 2023
At the end of last year, I started to connect with writers again. People with the same dreams as me were super encouraging and just wanted to write books and make something of their efforts.
This was also when I finally started getting back into my rhythm after a hard time with my day job. And as I connected with these other writers and authors, something happened.
I started selling more books, growing my following and email again, and found a renewed focus and niche that I have become increasingly excited about.
