Being an indie author is a lot. Like, genuinely a lot! There are a hundred things pulling at your attention at any given moment, and it is so easy to spend an entire afternoon dreaming about what your author life could look like someday. . . the full-time income, the loyal readership, the book that changes everything. . . but then you close your laptop having actually done nothing. Many authors have been there. More times than they'd like to admit! Here's how to change this. The thriving author businesses I've watched get built weren't built in big, dramatic leaps. They were built by authors who just kept showing up. One small step at a time. On the days it felt exciting and on the days it really didn't. Dreaming and vision casting is great. You need the dream and to keep chasing it! But the dream needs you to also take the next right step today. So that's my question for you today. Not "what are your big goals" but what is your next right step? The one small thing that, if you did it today, would move you forward just a little? Drop it below. Let's make each other accountable.
