How do you know when it is the right time to write and publish your book? And then, how do you find the courage to step back from a project that you’ve poured your heart into so you can create a larger body of work?
Today, you’ll hear a conversation with my friend, Heather Stimmler about the highly acclaimed Secrets of Paris website and newsletter. A labor of love, Secrets of Paris has been a trusted reference for alternative news, original feature stories, useful sightseeing advice, reviews and recommendations. She has been sharing insider information about Paris for visitors and residents for over twenty years.
Now Heather is sinking her teeth into her next challenge—writing the book about Paris tourism that has long been in her heart. She’ll share why she’s finding writing her book to be such a challenge and, and how she’s finding her way.
Listen in to hear:
- How Heather’s writing dreams have changed over the years and how she has taken the invitations from the universe and made them hers.
- Her step out of her writing comfort zone that went viral and how that’s helped push her forward
- How the Secrets of Paris has evolved and why she still has so much to say about the City of Lights after all these years
- How she’s learning to let go and make room for the new
Plus the small steps action plan that’s helping her move forward.
