概要

Crayons in My Manuscript is a writing productivity inspiration podcast for early-career academics whose lives don’t fit the ivory tower mold. Whether you’re parenting, serving, translating your thoughts into your second language, or blazing a First Generation trail into academia, we’ll tackle the challenges, scribbles, and meltdowns (yours or your child’s!) that come between you and your manuscript.

Hosted by Stacey Garrepy, a fellow Ph.D., mom, and scholar who’s been there, each episode offers practical tips, mindset shifts, and real talk about making real progress on your writing, even amid life’s chaotic scribbles. Because meaning is often best found in the margins of our busy, messy, drafts.

    If the sight of a blank page sends you into a mild panic (or a full-blown spiral), you are so not alone, friend. In this episode of Crayons in My Manuscript, we’re tackling the fear of the blank page head-on. I’ll share 6 real, doable strategies to get you unstuck and writing again.

    As a First-Gen, parenting academic and writing coach, I know firsthand how hard it can be to write when your brain feels fried, your time is limited, and perfectionism is whispering SHOUTING in your ear. But here’s the good news: you don’t have to wait for inspiration or perfect conditions to start. You need some tweaks in your mindset, as well as a toolkit that works for real life to paraphrase a popular anthropomorphized Australian Blue Heeler (parents, iykyk).

    In this episode, we’ll talk about 🖊️ The real reasons we freeze at the blank page (hint: it’s not laziness). 🎯 How perfectionism and comparison feed writing anxiety. 💡 Why “never start with a blank page” is the best writing advice you’ll ever get. 🪄 Six practical ways to start writing right now—even if you only have 10 minutes. 🌈 How to transform your anxiety into creative momentum.

    Whether you’re a doctoral student, young professor, or nontraditional academic juggling kids, shift work, or military life—this episode is for you.

    🎧 Listen and learn how to stop fearing the blank page and start writing with courage, clarity, and joy.

  • S1 Ep1 How to STOP Procrastinating Your Writing (Even When Life Is Chaotic)
    2026/02/13

    Dr. Stacey Garrepy explains why we procrastinate: our brains crave finished loops, need rest to process ideas, and avoid the vulnerability of writing. She reassures listeners that procrastination is not laziness.

    She offers practical strategies, namely: naming and befriending your feelings, trying an imposter or "worry hour" to get them out, set tiny, achievable goals (even one paragraph), and use grounding changes to reset your brain so you can make steady writing progress.
