What you need to know about this:

I’m sure everyone has been in the position I am in, but I am so curious to know how all of you have been able to fund your writing and publishing projects? Are you your own bank? Are you waiting a decade and saving up? Are you taking out a loan? How are people paying for these expenses and steps to be successful? Do you have any regrets in the early stages of financing your projects?

Great post from Writers Beware that is worth a look. The book review and book festival emails have gotten out of control. I am going to record a video on Monday about this but wanted to share in the meantime. https://writerbeware.blog/2026/08/28/production-companies-literary-agents-foreign-languages-ai-driven-scams-continue-to-morph/?utm_source=mailpoet&utm_medium=email&utm_source_platform=mailpoet&utm_campaign=the-latest-post-from-the-writer-beware-blog_154

I’m working on becoming a better and more consistent writer, and one of the reasons I joined this community was to connect with other authors who are figuring things out too. I’m interested in sharing ideas, talking about what’s actually working, being honest about the parts that are difficult, and learning from each other along the way. I just enjoy conversations about writing and the process behind it. What’s something you’ve been struggling with in your writing lately?
