Joanna Penn

Do you suffer from physical pain relating to your writing life?

Are you struggling with back pain, weight gain related to sedentary working, anxiety, depression, sleep problems, neck pain, eye strain, stress, loneliness, digestive issues, or Repetitive Strain Injury?

These are the most common issues reported by writers and if you struggle with any of them, you are not alone.

Writing is not a physically healthy job, but if you want a long-term writing career, then you need to look after your body.

Joanna Penn and Dr Euan Lawson talk about their own experiences with pain and health issues, and give some hints on how they have changed their own lives for the better.

The latest book from Joanna Penn is all about the gentle reminders on how we can't do it all. We need to focus on the tasks that we enjoy as a writer and look at other strategies to do the rest. And if that means that we don't publish a new book every month, then that's exactly what it means.

Writing is too important for it to lose the joy that brought it to us in the first place.

In this book, Joanna Penn joins up with Mark Leslie Lefebvre to give you a little insight into how they have managed to reduce the stress and become relaxed authors.
