Episode 50: [ENCORE EPISODE] Never Give Up

This week, I’m bringing back an encore episode of one of the most practical and encouraging topics we’ve covered: Never Give Up—Why Your Writing is Worth Holding On.

As a new year begins, it’s natural to reflect on your dreams—and maybe wonder why your writing life doesn’t look the way you thought it would by now.

Have you ever felt like maybe it’s just not working?

Like you’ve been trying, learning, starting over . . . and still haven’t “arrived”?

I get it. I’ve lived it.

In this episode of The Confident Fiction Author, I’m sharing a personal look at how I’ve been able to live the writing life I dreamed of—even without a breakout success or viral moment.

This isn’t about overnight wins.
It’s about staying diligent.
And building something real—step by step, word by word.

If you’re feeling behind or discouraged as you step into 2026, this episode is your reminder: don’t quit. Your fiction-writing dream is worth holding onto.
