Succeed and Soar’s Authors Speak ย series invites writers to answer questions about their artforms and special inspirations.
Welcomeย Fritze Robertsย ย
Fritze, what phrase inspires your writing and life?
like the way you can stage encounters with works of art.
– Ben Lerner,
on the novelist’s role in curating time.
Fritze, how do these words help your writing, your life?
I love that this phrase can apply to writing and life.
In writing, every word, every paragraph, every scene must be specifically chosen to communicate meaning to the reader. We craft moments in a characterโs life that convey an entire story โ a string of events that illustrate a complex idea or feeling.
Similarly, our lives are made up of days, and those days are filled with choices. We choose people and activities to spend time with, to put energy into. This is something I want to explore more on my YouTube channel.
Sample Text:

Writing, for many of us, is a creative and messy process. It is easy to get distracted by the maelstrom of ideas and language, characters and monsters.
My goal is to give you some helpful tools that place just enough order on the chaos for you to finish your stories and enjoy success.
In this book weโll discuss five steps that will help you get more out of your life as a writer.
