Writers Chat Recap for April Part 2

Writers Chat, hosted by Jean Wise, Johnnie Alexander, and Brandy Brow, is the show where we talk about all things writing, by writers and for writers!

“Because talking about writing is more fun than actually doing it.”

Facing Fear as a Writer

Writers face innumerable fears. Fear of failure, of success, of technology; fear of not being good enough, of criticism, and fear of disappointment…the list goes on. In this encouraging episode of Writers Chat, Johnnie Alexander starts off with encouraging words from the first chapter of The Artisan Soul by Erwin Raphael McManus. Then Brandy Brow, Norma Poore, and Melissa Stroh share personal examples of how God’s perfect love casts out fear. If you feel like a prisoner of fear, or simply need to be encouraged, be sure to check out the replay of this episode.
