The Million Words Project

I've challenged myself to write one million new words in twelve months.

Each week, I post a video updating you on my progress toward reaching my one million word target, and I share some of the ups and downs of the creative life. I hope to inspire you and encourage you to tackle the BIG THING that you've put on the back burner for far too long. You can find links to the Million Words Project Videos below.

Please Note: I will update this periodically, but maybe not quite weekly. If you're interested in following along, subscribe to the video feed (at either YouTube or Rumble) OR subscribe to my blog feed, which will update you whenever I post the newest video and transcript.

Week Three

The reason I started the Million Words Project was to counteract the false narrative that I wasn't writing.

Week Four

My creative life looks sedate, from the outside, but it's actually kind of chaotic.

Week Five

The truth is, Writing one million words is not my goal. The Million Words Project is just a tool to help me reach my real goals.

Week Six

I'm a failure...and it's not always a bad thing. Know when to pivot toward what works, and when to offer yourself some grace for missing the mark.

Week Seven

Am I writing too loud for you? Writing Out Loud helps me know what I think, and is one of the most important tools in my creative toolbox.
