The Pop-Up Series Workshop: Fear of Success by Dean Wesley Smith

#21…Fear of Success: Learning How Fear of Success Holds You Back

Most writers do not even realize they are being held back by a simple fear of success. Often this comes from how we are raised or our expectations of being a writer.

Fear of Success is also a major driving force for the critical voice in all of us.

This Pop-up will give you all sorts of tricks, hints, and plans to help you successfully learn how to deal with your fear of success, no matter the level.

CURATOR'S NOTE

To match our themes on success, WMG Publishing has given us a pop-up workshop on the ways to overcome the fear of success that plagues so many of us. This pop-up workshop is worth $150, making the Storybundle on this alone an incredible bargain. – Kristine Kathryn Rusch
