Imagine having your own personal writing life coach and mentor―someone encouraging yet honest, supportive yet empowering, who can help you set and achieve your goals, turn your moments of doubt and fear into sources of strength, and discover what you're truly capable of when you're at your best.

A motivational book for anyone dealing with writer's block or other writing obstacles. Whether you're a first-time writer with a brand-new project or a seasoned pro, Kendra Levin's book will help you do the best writing of your life―and live your best life while doing it.

A motivational self-care book for writing aficionados. Using a fresh new approach to Joseph Campbell's archetypal The Hero's Journey, Levin reveals how to be a hero in the narrative of your own process.

With over thirty exercises designed to help you reinvent your creative process from the inside out, learn how to:

• Identify your biggest challenges and render them powerless
• Start a project that you love―and stick with it
• Design a structure for writing regularly
