CALLING ALL WRITERS! See if you can answer these questions:

What's your writing ritual?
What happens to things that aren't put on your calendar?
What is the REAL reason you're suffering from writer's block?
True or False: It's okay to re-read what you wrote the day before.
What kind of exercise is writing, really?

If you were sure how to answer those questions, then this episode is what you need -- you just don't know it yet.

Sam Horn, Founder and CEO of the Intrigue Agency, is on a mission to help people create quality communications that add value for all involved -- and she sat down with Jason Brooks to spend a little time to help aspiring and beginning writers by offering wisdom and insight from her extensive experience.

Sam is the originator of the trade-marked communication process called Tongue Fu!, which has been published in 17 languages and taught to schools, associations, government agencies, and corporations. Sam’s work has been featured on NPR, in the NY Times, Harvard Business Review (Ascend), Investors Business Daily andReaders Digest. She’s been interviewed on top-ranked podcasts including John Lee Dumas’ Entrepreneur on Fire and on every major network, including NBC’s Tonight Show and To Tell the Truth.

Her specialty is helping people crystallize one-of-a-kind communications - books, brands, businesses, causes, campaigns, fund-raising pitches and high-stakes presentations - that scale their income and impact, for good.
