Welcome to Have You Earned This? by Nell Stevens. I’m the author of two memoirs, BLEAKER HOUSE and MRS GASKELL & ME, aka THE VICTORIAN & THE ROMANTIC. My debut novel, BRIEFLY, A DELICIOUS LIFE, will be published in the UK in June, and in the US in July. I work as an Assistant Professor of Creative Writing, running workshops in fiction and non fiction.
This newsletter is about working as a writer and how writing works. I’m thinking about the lessons that can and can’t be learnt from the creative writing workshop, about the overlap between how we think about our writing and how we think about ourselves, and about what we do in our work and lives to earn what we want. Have You Earned This? explores what it means to make a living, and a life, as a writer.
