9. Stuck at the Starting Line? How to Start Writing Your Book Without Burning Out

Episode 9 — Stuck at the Starting Line? How to Start Writing Your Book Without Burning Out At the beginning of a new year, many writers feel ready to start writing their book — or they’ve begun with fresh energy and quietly worry about falling back into old stop–start patterns. In this episode of Write the Darn Book, we explore why starting a book (and sustaining early momentum) can feel harder than expected — even when motivation is high and the desire to write is genuine. Rather than pushing harder or relying on discipline alone, this episode introduces a Momentum Reset — a mindset-first, nervous-system-aware approach to beginning (and continuing) your book in a way that actually works with how you’re wired. This episode is for you if: • You want to start writing your book but feel stuck at the beginning • You’ve started with enthusiasm and don’t want momentum to fade • You struggle with writer’s block, overwhelm, or perfectionism • You want writing motivation that feels sustainable, not exhausting In this episode, you’ll learn: • Why starting a book is often a nervous system issue, not a discipline problem • How to break writer’s block at the beginning without burning out • What a safe entry start is — and how it helps create real writing momentum • How natural personality tendencies and thinking styles affect how writers begin • How to shift from output-focused pressure into identity-led writing The episode closes with a short grounding and activation to help you begin — gently, confidently, and one word at a time.     💗 Want deeper support?
