This week, I’m sharing the story of how one bizarre neighborhood party made me stop believing in my own writing — and how I clawed my way back (yes, this is the one about the sex-toy party). From imposter syndrome to unedited manuscripts to agents asking hard questions, this episode is equal parts funny, honest, and full of hard‑earned advice. I wrap with three tips every writer needs: ask boldly, slow down, and champion your work.
