Description

Writers gain confidence and creativity in their writing work because of the coaching tips and scientific tools Julia Roberts illustrates in this book. Roberts taps into the surprising science of creativity and her coach training to give the reader grounded, proven, easy-to-use methods to: ?Clarify?Ideate?Develop ideas?Finish projectsAs Roberts says, "Writers are the Best Weirdos" and she's here for you - empathetic, insightful, supportive, and humorous as she shares her personal experience with writing and publishing to help lighten yours. The creative thinking process is universal, but creative thinkers are far from identical. We each have our own strengths to deploy and struggles to overcome. We each need different prescriptions to smooth our own creative process. Take a moment to think: Where does the work come easily to you? Where do you struggle? Where do you gain energy? Where do you lose energy (and just want to quit?!)Is writer's block real? Is a headache real (even though some people don't get them?) As a scientist, Robers can attest, it's real, painful, and robs the world of some of the best ideas and insights by sidetracking amazing writers! There's a deep knowledge base of creativity and the creative thinking process that can help you predict and prevent your own slide into procrastination and block - so you can finish the things you envision. The book is filled with scientifically tested tools and "Try It" worksheets about how, why, and when you write well (and why, sometimes, not so much.) Julia Roberts has a Masters in the Science of Creativity, is certified as a life coach and creativity coach. She's on a mission to help writers glide past those awkward, shameful, painful moments that can stop your writing in its tracks. She can help you stare down doubt, dread, and delay, and write with more ease and satisfaction. Roberts is also the author of Sex, Lies & Creativity - Gender Differences in Creative Thinking, (Difference Press, 2014) and is performing a TEDx talk: "It's Not Just Mojo, The Surprising Science of Creativity" in 2022.
