Crafting a writing life isn't all about knowing where to put commas and how to develop characters. It's also about engaging with other humans. This week I'm in conversation with Larissa Sjarbaini, a high performance coach, about how to do that and why you might want to, even if you're an extreme introvert.

We know that, in a story something must change before the protagonist can begin to conquer their problem. If you're a writer who isn't writing as much as you'd like, might I suggest that you, too, need to make a change?
