On this episode of GoalChat, host Debra Eckerling talks about writing books with Scott Huver, author of Beverly Hills Noir; cozy, romance, fiction, and non-fiction writer Jessica Mehring; and Melody Owen of Author Nation. Whether you are writing long-form or short-form, fiction or non, writing has benefits for the author, as well as the reader.

The panel discusses what led them to writing books; their approaches to the art, craft and promotion of writing; and more.

Goals

- Scott: Make a list of the people in your network who can help you accomplish your book goals

- Melody: Start one conversation every day. And follow up

- Jessica: Commit to writing something small every day

Final Thoughts

- Melody: If you have a book in you, don't let it sit

- Jessica: There is nothing wrong with perfectionism - work with it, don't let it stop you from writing

- Scott: Find the yes! If you believe in what you are doing, talk to whomever you need to until you find the yes
