How to Write Your Book with Writing Coach Grace Miller

11/15/23 • 34 min

Do you have a book idea but don’t know how to get started? Or have you started writing a book, and then life got in your way, and you never finished it? If so, I am SO excited to introduce you to this week’s guest, author and writing coach, Grace Miller!

Grace loves helping people write and finish their books! She has been a ‘working writer’ for a decade but has been writing much longer than that. She believes that writing is not only a vital creative art, it’s also a vehicle for healing. “When we give voice to our heart, our stories have the ability to transform lives and connect with readers across time and space.”

In this episode, Grace shares why she believes writing a book is a spiritual practice, one that can heal you and the world. She will also share the two phases of writing, why most people get stuck, and how to FINISH your book!

Key Learnings:

Grace knew she wanted to be a writer when she was really young, but received so many messages about having a ‘real’ career that she didn’t allow herself to do what she really loved for a long time. Now she is committed to helping others say yes to being a writer without having to wait so long, and to have the support they need along the way.
There are two phases to the writing process. The first phase is to flesh out your idea, and get clear about what you want to write about. This is also when you develop your writing routine. Grace helps you to discover YOUR way of writing, whether that is 5 min a day or an hour once a week. There is no wrong way to be a writer, other than NOT writing!
The second phase is taking your idea and writing your book. Many people get stuck here. They have an idea, and maybe work on it a bit, but don’t actually finish their book. This is why having a writing coach and mentor is SO important.
Writing can be a healing process, as well as another aspect of your spiritual practice. Stories are medicine, and we heal the world when we share our story.

Anne Frank’s Miracle & Message for Aspiring Writers

Are you an aspiring writer? Is there a story in you that wants to be expressed? Are you allowing your circumstances to stop you from even beginning? In the last six months or so, the spirit of Anne Frank has been making her presence known to me. As I began to learn more about her, and why she was connecting with me, I was fascinated to discover that, hidden in her story are the keys to manifestation! In this episode, I share how Anne Frank made her presence known to me, and how this young girl manifested a miracle, becoming the author of the most widely read book in the world, second only to the Bible! I never know why spirits come to me, but given everything happening in the world right now, I believe Anne is encouraging you to share YOUR story to help heal the planet. PS- Next week I interview an amazing writing coach to teach you how to write (and finish) your book, so make sure you tune in!

Key Learnings:

Anne Frank has given the world so many gifts through sharing her story, but did you know that she also gave us the keys to manifestation?
The first thing Anne did was decide to become a writer. She wanted this with all her heart. The second thing she did was ACT like a writer and write every day. As the war was seeming to come to an end, Anne began preparing her writing to be published as a book. Her intention was so strong, not even the Nazis could stop it. They may have taken her body, but not her spirit. Her spirit lives on through her writing.
The thing Anne Frank did NOT do was blame her circumstances or decide to wait until her circumstances were better. No, she fully embodied that she was a writer. And today, her book is the most widely read book in the world, second only to the Bible.

“The most healing thing you can offer the world is your story. Anne Frank didn’t wait for the world to change before writing her story. Her story changed the world.”

Feeling Stuck? Try a Novena!

Are you feeling stuck? Could you use a boost of supernatural energy?

Try a novena!

A novena is an ancient prayer practice in which you recite a prayer every day for nine days. Whenever I feel stuck, the first thing I do is start a novena. I have experienced miracles with this practice, and you can too!

In this episode, I share the simple steps of doing a novena, and I even share a special novena prayer in honor of Our Lady of the Miraculous Medal. I will also share a spontaneous prayer to show you how you can use ANY prayer and create your own novena!

Have you ever done a novena? And if not, are you willing to try one?

Key learnings:

1. When I feel stuck or stagnant, I choose a novena to help me ‘move my energy.’ A novena is a prayer you say for nine days. You can use a traditional prayer, or you can make up your own prayer.

2. The first step is to set an intention. What are you asking for? What result would you like to experience?

3. The second step is to choose the date you will begin. You can begin on a feast day, nine days before a feast day, on the new moon or full moon...or you can just begin today! I recommend having a journal to write down your intention and keep track of the days so you know when you have completed your novena.

4. The prayer I shared is The Novena Prayer to Our Lady of the Miraculous Medal. You can begin on Nov 27th through Dec 5th, or anytime you need support:

Immaculate Virgin Mary, mother of Jesus and my mother, I come to you with confidence in your powerful intercession, manifested through your Miraculous Medal. As your loving, trustful child I ask this favor...Obtain for me as well, a pure heart, that my entire life may give glory to God. Amen.

“If you feel stuck, try a novena. Take any prayer and say it every day for nine days, and watch the miracles unfold.”
