What if the reason you can’t start isn’t that you don’t know enough or haven’t planned enough, but because starting would make the thing real?
In this episode, I tackle the Ouroboros Problem 🐍 — how do you begin a book when the beginning depends on the ending, and the ending depends on the beginning?
I break down why first chapters and blurbs are particularly thorny, then propose two simple questions for de-thorning them.
👉 We’ll also get into persnickety perfectionism, the fantasy of the unblemished book, and something I almost edited out of this episode—no joke—three separate times.
