My new book is ready for preorder! If you’re looking for the eBook, go here.
Not important, but I’ll note it anyway: If you’re wondering why there are two listings on Amazon for my new book, it’s the dead giveaway that this is self-published work. Eventually, they’ll be linked so you see all the versions displayed cleanly on one page. For now, it’s an annoying extra click. We’ll be okay.
This book is different from my first book, Unfussy Life. Unfussy Life is a memoir about my journey through change. It’s a super relatable personal development book.
Intuitive Writing: The Remedy for Writer’s Block and the Secret to Authentic Communication is the only book on writing you need to get started.
Cover design by Stacey Aaronson.
Walking back from the mailbox the other day while holding the hardcover in my hands, I had tears in my eyes. Hardcovers seem to do this for me more than paperbacks. I also do a case laminate — no fussy dust jackets. I always throw these out, and as an author, the idea that someone would throw out my jacket messes with my vibe. So this one’s jacket-free and fully exposed to the elements.
So, why would you want to read a book on Intuitive Writing?
If you spend more time thinking about writing than actually writing, this will be your BFF.
Even if writing has become the most annoying task in your business, keeping you from selling your products or services and getting your brand ot there, this will also be your BFF.
And if you’re constantly saying, “I should write a book!” or “I should start a blog!” and you’re tired of hearing yourself talk about it — this’ll be your BFF.
I’ve been teaching writing since 2017, and writing in a professional setting (like corporate communications and consulting) since 2004.
After teaching hundreds of clients how to write, they tell me that my approach is inspiring, funny, and practical.
Consider Intuitive Writing your field guide. In the book, I show you the practices that have helped me and my clients and online writing community not only hit impressive writing goals but also create nourishing and sustainable writing lives.
When your writing practice is sustainable, it won’t lead to burnout (or burning your latest manuscript).
Intuitive Writing is your book BFF no matter what you’re writing — blogs, website copy, social content, books.
And contrary to popular opinion, the whiskey-guzzling writers will tell you that writing = suffering (perhaps why they need to drink?). Writing is healing, expansive, and nurturing.
And the road to being a more authentic and productive writer involves thinking less — and using your intuitive skills more.
Whether you’re in a creative role, a cubicle, operating your own business — or dreaming of a book project, the surprisingly simple processes in the book will:
Give you a feeling of liberation as you write just about anything
Open you up to a wellspring of tips, practices, prompts, and stories to get you to the page consistently
Deliver the confidence and faith to face the blank page, play with different kinds of writing, and share your work over and over
Encourage you to take consistent, small, imperfect actions in your writing while nurturing your mind, body, and spirit
Prove that you can trust your words will flow without forcing
Fall (back) in love with writing.
Free yourself from perfectionism, procrastination, and overthinking — and let your words flow.
Pre-orders are fuel for self-published authors.
Intuitive Writing will be released on June 20, 2023 — and if you preorder and send your receipt along, you’ll get some sweet bonuses.
Go straight to Amazon to order the Hardcover/Paperback or eBook.
Enjoying your book, Jacq! And you inspired me to write yesterday. I've been toying with an idea for my second book, and opted to start putting in 1-2 Pomodoros per day on it.
