I'm overwhelmed and I don't feel like a writer
I am overwhelmed by all of this. I don't feel like a real writer.
Beginner
You don't need to feel like a writer to be one. The only thing writers actually do consistently is keep writing. Pendraic is built to take the project-management piece off your plate (the Story Index remembers your characters, the World Index keeps the rules, Penny finds the thread you forgot) so you can stay with the words. Pick one tiny thing for today: read your last scene back, write one sentence, or close the laptop and come back tomorrow. All three count.
What to try
- Read your last scene
- Write one sentence
