From an idea, to paper to published. Of course there are a few more steps to writing a book then that and the most experienced writers discover their own process as time goes on. But for the rest of us, Kathi interviewed world renowned writer Robin Jones Gunn (yes, that Robin Gunn!) about her process. She talks about her love for lined binders, prayer and people in her sphere of influence that help her get her ideas from said binder into the hands of her readers.
Every writer at every level will want to listen to this episode with pen and paper in hand. Then make sure to bookmark the episode because you’ll want to listen to it again and again.
