## Resource

This episode is for a lot of different writers: writers who are deep into that first-draft energy I like to talk about, writers who are deep into revisions and are feeling crushed under the weight of what they’ve written, and writers who don’t know how to use their writing time when they have it. Today I’m going to talk about the best emotional and mental state for memoir writing and also how to write when you’re not feeling that way. So let’s get into it.
