Let's dream for a moment. Not about the book. 📕 About what happens after. If your book were finished What changes? Would you: 📖 speak more? 📖 grow your business? 📖 share your story? 📖 inspire others? 📖 finally prove to yourself you can do it? Sometimes remembering why we're writing is what helps us keep going. 👉 What would finishing your book make possible?

Most writers think writing a book requires time. And yes, it does. But after helping writers through this process, I've noticed something. The biggest thing a book asks from us usually isn't time. 🕰️ It's honesty. Sometimes honesty about: - what the story is actually about - what we want to say - what we're avoiding - what needs to change - Because writing a book isn't just creating pages. 📃 It's creating clarity. 👉 What do you think your book is asking from you right now? Share it in the comments! 👇

Hello everyone! I'm Irina and I've recently joined this community. For most of my adult life I've published my work. However, that's only in scientific journals focused on molecular biology, virology and vaccine development related topics. Since a few years, I've shifted focus on myself and the stories that I carry that are related to my family or me. I'm exploring writing about them now and am very curious where this journey will take me. At the moment I have an "accountability buddy" and we meet in person once a month to discuss what we've written down and exchange ideas. It's interesting to see that my friend is always writing by hand, while I need a word file and track changes - 14 years in academic research have formatted me 😅

Since today is my birthday AND my son's, I figured to shine the light on authors! A great gift for authors would be to give them reviews, share about their book, and be supportive! SO, I'm sharing this with you all! ❤️
