The Confident Fiction Author
Hey there my fellow author, I’m Sarah Elisabeth Sawyer, an old soul kind of writer living my dream as a full-time author and authorprenuer.
But I didn’t start out living a confident creative lifestyle. I struggled with the fears and the mental and emotional barriers that so often plague writers at all stages of their author career.
But the truth is that, with the right knowledge, tools, and training, you can overcome those barriers. I’m here to teach you how I’ve developed a lifestyle that’s allowed me to publish 19 books (and counting).

Whether it’s developing your ideal writing routine, tackling new skills like dictating your fiction, or overcoming the obstacles life throws your way, this podcast will help you live a more confident, creative lifestyle.

This week's podcast episode is a deep dive into three Rs of the author life.
Because living a confident fiction author lifestyle is not just about confidence in your productivity…it's also about feeling confident in your downtime!
Many writers don’t feel confident in their downtime. You may feel guilty for taking time off, confused about how to spend your time when not working, and ultimately stressed instead of rested after trying to take time off.
In this episode, I cover three easy-to-remember aspects of creative recovery for your most confident writing life:
√ Rest
√ Rejuvenation
√ Reading
Listen to this week's episode to learn how to feel confident as a fiction author when you take time off, whether it’s a whole day or just a Saturday morning.
