    <description><![CDATA[<p><span style="font-weight:400;">Are you unsure of how and where to start when it comes to writing your book? Do you wish you knew how to organize and outline all your thoughts? Are you constantly doubting if you’re even qualified to write a story? Are you fearful of judgment from those closest to you?</span></p>
<p></p>
<p><span style="font-weight:400;">I’m so glad you’re here! This podcast will help you learn step-by-step strategies on the writing process, teach you about the various publishing and marketing methods, and help you overcome self-doubt so you can build your confidence and finally take your book all the way from start to finish.</span></p>
<p></p>
<p><span style="font-weight:400;">Hi, I’m Michelle, and I am a Christian, a mom, a wife, and - of course - a writer. For nearly 20 years I honed my craft in private, only ever writing behind a pen name. Although I was an accomplished and celebrated author in my online circle, I wouldn’t dare discuss my stories in person. I was ashamed and I knew I was being convicted by God to stop hiding behind a nickname and write something meaningful.</span></p>
<p></p>
<p><span style="font-weight:400;">Motherhood, marriage, entrepreneurship, and busyness slowly started taking over my time. I didn’t know what to write anymore and I didn’t think I’d ever feel the satisfaction of finishing another story again, but God’s plan is far better than my own. </span></p>
<p></p>
<p><span style="font-weight:400;">Through prayer, dedication, and realistic time management, I am writing again with a renewed passion for telling stories that evoke emotion and I can’t wait to help you do the same! There is freedom and excitement in writing, sharing your stories, and connecting with others. If I can be bold and courageous with my words and learn how to stand in the strength of the Lord and put myself and my stories out there, then so can you. </span></p>
<p></p>
<p><span style="font-weight:400;">If you’re ready to finally find a way to make your writing process flourish and become a published author all while being a busy wife, mom, and churchgoer, follow along for </span></p>
<p></p>
<p><span style="font-weight:400;">- Step-by-step processes that are simple and actionable </span></p>
<p><span style="font-weight:400;">- Coaching that is encouraging and practical, and </span></p>
