Ep10: Tracee Bebee - Screenwriter, Producer

When a health crisis knocked her off her feet, Tracee Beebe didn't just recover, she reinvented herself, pivoting from horse trainer to writer and building a whole new life one page at a time. In this episode, Tracee opens up about her illness, how writing became her lifeline, and how sharing that journey online connected her to a community of fellow writers she never expected to find. We also dig into her refreshingly generous take on "networking": how being a genuine fan of your writing heroes can turn admiration into real mentorship and lasting relationships. Plus, her no-nonsense advice for newer writers: write every single day, no excuses, and use competitions like NYC Midnight to keep that muscle flexed. Tracee is the author of the Write Anyway workbook (available now on Amazon) and has her next book, Pitch Your Heart Out, on the way. Tune in for a conversation about resilience, community, and choosing every single day to get busy living! Tracee is available for private mentoring!  Hit her up on Instagram:  @TraceeBeebe [https://studio.youtube.com/channel/UCUM08fSulaftKIVVbY294Kw]  Follow Tracee on social media @TraceeBeebe (with all the Es!)  Tracee's IMDb page: https://www.imdb.com/name/nm5063349/ Tracee's substack: https://traceebeebe.substack.com/ Pick up Tracee's book "No Excuses, Write Anyway" on Amazon: https://a.co/d/04L3WB9a
