The Writing Coach Podcast with Rebecca L. Weber


Jul 25, 2019

Running out of reasons to avoid pitching? I’ve got you covered with 100 reasons why you shouldn’t pitch today. Many of these can be adapted to be reasons why you should not write anything else today, like the article you were assigned last week, or your book proposal, or your novel.

You’ll probably recognize a few of these reasons—ones you already believe to be true. Those seem real, immutable. Pick another one that you’ve never used as a reason not to write a pitch.

I want you to experience how quickly we can take something we’ve never believed to be true, and with a little attention, can create all kinds of supporting evidence to make it real. Something we can solidly believe in. Solid like a block that we can’t pass.

Once you see how easy it is to create a synthetic writer’s block, you’ll also see more readily that you have the option not to buy into and believe the other stories you’re telling yourself that prevent you from the work you really want to be doing.
