Amara Luciano wants to live in a world where you can trust that “writing gets to be easy,” “marketing is always effortless,” and “you are always worthy.”

A powerhouse success coach and feminist fantasy author, she helps creatives break free from “starving artist” paradigms and helps authors sell books that matter. She has reached Amazon’s Top 100 in Dark Fantasy with her book, Heirs of Fate.

When she’s not at her keyboard or delivering empowering livestreams on her instagram, she’s on her couch streaming a Christmas rom com or a kick-ass tv series.

There’s also a good chance she’s either a) cooking up/curating a new short fiction piece at her company, Wonder Heart Books, or b) recording a keep-it-real episode on her podcast, The Way You Like.

3 Pre-Writing Rituals You Will LOVE

[image error]


You know how there are all these writing advice sites that make the actual writing part either really frustrating or REALLY depressing and in the end you don’t feel “ready” to jump into your story?


That’s not a fluke. It just means you haven’t found your process yet. And putting together pre-writing rituals you LOVE can be part of your process (I get shuddery I’ve-just-seen-a-spide

Isabelle Eberhardt
“Now more than ever do I realize that I will never be content with a sedentary life, that I will always be haunted by thoughts of a sun-drenched elsewhere.”
Isabelle Eberhardt, The Nomad: Diaries of Isabelle Eberhardt

Franz Kafka
“I think we ought to read only the kind of books that wound or stab us. If the book we're reading doesn't wake us up with a blow to the head, what are we reading for? So that it will make us happy, as you write? Good Lord, we would be happy precisely if we had no books, and the kind of books that make us happy are the kind we could write ourselves if we had to. But we need books that affect us like a disaster, that grieve us deeply, like the death of someone we loved more than ourselves, like being banished into forests far from everyone, like a suicide. A book must be the axe for the frozen sea within us. That is my belief.”
Franz Kafka

I just happened on your blog and got it excited, and it in my frenzy jumped into adding you on goodreads xDD

You've just made me ridiculously happy with that comment! I've been book bullying people to read this because I absolutely adored it. And it was so unexpected! I hope you have the same reaction. :D
