Shonda Ramsey, a host and indie author, discusses overcoming writer's block and starting the writing process. She emphasizes the importance of setting the mood with ambient music and not editing while writing to avoid self-criticism. For nonfiction, she advises writing freely and saving drafts for later refinement. For fiction, she suggests creating character backstories and refining world details. Ramsey also recommends setting writing goals, using Pinterest for inspiration, and maintaining a consistent morning routine. She encourages writers to be less critical of themselves and to celebrate small successes.
