Anyone who’s ever written and tried to publish knows how incredibly competitive it is, so it's not surprising that feelings of envy come up for writers. Envy is an inevitable part of human nature. Still, there are ways to let it go: 1. Fess us and name your envy. 2. Head down, get to work, and focus on how freeing it is to fully acknowledge what a waste of time envy is. 3. Boost your inner confidence while keeping your eye on the long game. The future yours for the taking.

As writers, it can be very hard to let go of our work. Here's a great post about memoir, but the insights apply to other types of writing as well. Two practical takeaways: 1. When you start fiddling with commas, it's ready to go; 2. Nothing is ever truly finished, so at some point you just have to stop. https://lnkd.in/eVu7b8jE

Sandra Whitten Plant has always looked around the next bend or over the next hill, occasionally getting snagged on an inconvenient fence or doused in a cold mountain stream. In the adventures of her decades-long writing career, she finds there is always a story to be told, whether affirming, informative, or entertaining. She also knows that getting a good story out of a misadventure is sometimes the only comfort, lesson, or hope. That curiosity-particularly about life's possibilities and what drives our points of view, actions, and reactions-is what courses through this collection of stories (and the accompanying guidance). Thus, you'll find good at the heart of both the fiction and creative nonfiction tales found in Sweet Adversity. Enjoy Plant's account of two children contending with neighborhood bullies and their experience with the woman next door who shares her gloomy home with a departed husband. Likewise, read about the Vietnam War's impact on young sweethearts in the Tennessee hills and the belated happy ending of two old buddies who lived through that Cold War conflict. You'll also read about bigotry, puppy love, a beloved radio show and more. At the heart of this broad collection, you'll find encouragement, laughter, tears and the reasons the author's dad and William Shakespeare encourage us all to take lessons from Sweet Adversity.
