Stop Writing Alone: Recent Episodes
Nicole Rivera
Stop Writing Alone is a weekly show for writers looking for a writing community. In each episode listeners will learn where and how they can find, or create, their own writing community while joining one such community with Stop Writing Alone. The show will provide inspiration, writing activities, critique, and lessons from “distant teachers” in the writing world via their writings, online presence, and interviews. The show is written and hosted by Nicole Rivera, co-organizer of a local writing group, writer, and Pitch Wars 2016 mentee.
Episode 186: Writing Peer Letters for Better Critique Conversations Episode Description Critique conversations can sometimes be complicated by the reader’s intention rather than serving the author of the piece being critiqued. This month, a small cohort of Stop Writing Alone members is trying out a new process for critique involving some tools like Writing Notes (discussed in episode 185), and Peer Letters, to help writing groups remain focused on the true purpose of critiquing each other’s writing: helping each writer to best bring their vision for their writing to life. In this episode, Nicole describes how she has used this tool in the Stop Writing Alone Critique Crew to serve the writers she is reading

Episode 185: "Writing Notes" for Critique and Creation Episode Description As the Stop Writing Alone Critique Crew has begun to experiment with a new way to critique our writing, I have discovered a tool in “writing notes” that I wanted to share with the whole community. “Writing Notes” are meant to be shared with readers of your work to help focus their feedback on what you actually need to help your WIP become exactly what you’ve dreamed, but I have also found that these notes are helping me stay focused as well. This week I shared my process in writing my writing notes and challenge you to take the time to write them for your own WIP.

AI is here, do you think ChatGPT is a writer’s friend or foe? This week Nicole sits down with three writers who have dove in to use tools like ChatGPT and Jasper to ask them about their experiences. Jackie Dana, Heather Huffman and Susie Taylor share how they have used these tools in their fiction, content creation, research and more. Tune in to hear about why you might be celebrating this new tech and what, if anything, you still have to fear.

The debate over writing prompts continues on, but is there a different way to look at prompts when you choose to do them IN community? I think so! This week I discuss why I think this “Writing Fitness with Friends” activity is something all writers should consider adding to their practice.

Where you write can be just as important as the tools you use. This week Nicole discusses a strange new location she wrote in over the past week and asks writers to consider finding a new locale for their writing as well.
Last week Nicole took part in a 24 hour story contest and found that the Writing Practice she has been learning from Natalie Goldberg and Writing Down the Bones helped her reach the deadline. In this episode Nicole shares her writing practice and flash fiction story to show the connection between the two in just one example.

This week the community behind National Novel Writing month over at nanowrimo.org announced that there will be no in-person events associated with their nonprofit community due to risks associated with COVID-19. It’s the right move, but the question remains: how do we sustain the excitement, the energy, and continue to build community without all the awesome that is in-person NaNoWriMo events? Nicole has some ideas and shares them this week, including tools for virtual connection, tips on how show up for a virtual community, and why this might be the best opportunity for you to find your peeps!

This week Nicole discusses part one of Lisa Cron’s book, Story Genius, entitled WHAT A STORY IS AND WHAT IT ISN’T. A deep understanding of story is one of the most important things a writer needs, but when Lisa Cron dared to say that everything we’ve learned about writing is wrong, Nicole was intrigued.

This week Nicole discusses (again!) her love of Julia Cameron’s Morning Pages and gives some clarification on what they are, what they can be used for, and — the biggest question of all — what IS three pages?
*Nicole is also seeking applause for this episode since she was force to record and produce it in the middle of a blackout with seemingly no end.
for even more morning pages chat, check out Episode 2 of Stop Writing Alone!
It’s a bit of an understatement to say that 2020 has been an atypical year. However, thanks to Emma Isaacs of the Creative Ways podcast, Nicole is thinking about and talking about the fact that maybe this year we may need a reminder to take a minute for rest and self-care.

Michael Schwartz has always been a writer, but his profession in US Intelligence had him using those talents differently than he does today. With his first album, Impossible Blue, Mike has found his groove as a singer songwriter. In this week’s episode Nicole asks Mike about his long and winding road to music, where he’s found his inspiration, and how he ultimately made the choice to transition from his career. Mike talks about family inspiration, professional motivation, the business of music, and how he coaches clients looking to make big moves in their life as well. Stay tuned to the end of the episode where Mike shares his first single off of his second album with us!

Social media can be a powerful force when seeking out community, but not always for conversation.

In her TED Talk “THe danger of a single story,” Chimamanda Ngoyi Adichie reminds us why it is so important to read widely in order to gain a greater understanding of cultures outside of our own. This week Nicole discusses this topic, the implications it has for our time, and our consequential responsibilities as writers to write more, read more, and share more diverse stories.

What is the type of writing support and writing community that you need? Through the creation of the Stop Writing Alone Happy Campers Club, Nicole found five different types of community meetings and support that each provide their own value -- goal setting, write-ins, general support, revision chat/critique, and writing prompt meetings. In this episode she describes each type of meeting, their value, and offers an opportunity for you to participate in each one during the week of May 25th in the Stop Writing Alone with Nicole Rivera FB Group.

In April 2020, Nicole launched a new one month long writing community experiment. She called it The Stop Writing Alone Happy Campers Club. She made a plan, and a number of people showed up. She didn’t know the country would go into quarantine. She didn’t know how important community would be. She wasn’t sure it would be valuable. It was. This week’s episode is a chat with some of the happy campers reflecting on what they gained from the one month experience and how it helped them in their writing goals.

Whether writer’s block exists or not is not what’s up for debate here. A thing happens and writers become paralyzed. Nicole discusses how this manifests in her own creations and what she’s discovered as one of the great culprits and how you can battle against it.

Recently Nicole discovered, to her horror, that the one question Oprah Winfrey claims to be the single most important question for any person to answer in their lifetime -- What do I want? -- was the one question she couldn’t answer. Ever since discovering this, she has worked to find her answers in her creative life as well as her life as a whole. After listening to author and creativity coach, Jessica Abel, discuss the “shoulds” in our lives, Nicole discovered they can lead us all to the answer to our wants which will then help us reach for all our dreams -- especially when it comes to our writing careers.

The world is in need of strong, intelligent voices. Should those voices be wasted on fiction? Should writers be spending their hours in more important pursuits than playing make believe on the page? This week Nicole addresses the question of whether or not writers are wasting their time when they write fiction. She sites research that underscores the magnitude of fiction’s impact on our society and celebrates its small victories as well. This episode doesn’t ask if your story matters, it tells you WHY it does, so listen, then GO WRITE!

“This is how you do it: you sit down at the keyboard and you put one word after another until it's done. It's that easy, and that hard.” - Neil Gaiman @neilhimself
This week Nicole’s mind is on action — the power of it, and the conflicting nature of its simplicity and impossibility. “Just DO it!” Nike tells us and it IS, in fact that simple, except when it isn’t. A chat about the importance of taking action -- even messy action -- and the secret to sustaining it in order to reach all of your goals.
