Manifesting Our Writing Goals in 2023 ✨
Talking daily practice with Kellianne Benson of 750 Words
Happy New Year, Bleeders!
The latest episode is very near and dear to me. With the year turning, I’ve been thinking a lot about writing-related resolutions and how to accomplish them.
So this episode is all about writing practice—the daily grind of it, the unsexy truth about how we manifest our writing goals by showing up and allowing ourselves to get words on the page, however messy they might be at first. And because 750 Words has been so instrumental to my own daily practice, I wanted to dive into this topic with the perfect guest: Kellianne Benson, community manager and director of 750words.com.
Of course, we talk about 750words.com—what it is, how it came to be, and how it’s helping writers—plus, Kellianne shares her own writing journey and publishing goals for 2023.
AND THEN, I recap my 2022 resolutions, how those went, and my 2023 writing goals.

Here’s a preview:
“I get a lot of emails from people who say, ‘I don't know what to write about.’ They only know that they need to write, but they don't quite know how to get it out. There's a block there. And the biggest piece of advice that I give to them—and then I offer myself whenever I feel that block—is you just have to sit down and dive in. Sometimes it feels like work. We all look at finished products, books, songs, all of them—we look at the finished product and we think that this beautiful piece of work just poured out of someone. And that's not the case.”
Where I write:
I’m asking each guest to give us a peek behind the scenes. Kellianne writes in this luscious forest green dream.
