Mike Salisbury: Writing Slow, The Joy of Obscurity, & Other Essentials

Feeling behind in your writing—or wondering if it’s even worth finishing?

In Part 2 of my conversation with literary agent Mike Salisbury, we dig deeper into the emotional and practical realities of the writing life. Mike challenges our obsession with speed and reminds us that quality storytelling takes time. He talks about the beauty of being unknown, how to face book reviews, and why finishing your draft matters more than perfecting it.

You’ll walk away with a fresh appreciation for the quiet, focused work it takes to write something worth reading.
