Synopsis

There's an idea burning inside you, a story you want to tell, but you don't know where to start.

Well, this book was written just for you!

The Writer Within: The Introspective Prework to Your Writing Journey was written by author and Authors Up podcast co-host Ruth E. Griffin as a guide for would-be writers looking for a place to begin writing their book.

The Writer Within defines the elements of storytelling (e.g., the genres, styles, story plots, etc.), highlights writing tools, and tackles common challenges most authors face. It invites you to take an introspective dive into the following questions:

1. Where do I begin?
2. How do I start the process?
3. Who is my audience?
4. What are the most common stumbling blocks?
5. How do I overcome them?

The responses will help you build a roadmap that will guide you through your writing journey and draw out the writer within you.

This book is more than a how-to, more than a guide-it is the beginning of your story as a writer and an author.
