Podcasts about still writing

In this week's Monday Matters episode, Jen and I grabbed four of the last books we've read, and shared a few takeaways from each for listeners looking for good reads this summer: Will’s List: The Lion Women of Tehran by Marjan KamaliA compelling novel tracing the history of Iran from the 1970s through the Revolution and into modern times through the lives of two lifelong friends. A Very Small Farm by William Paul WinchesterOne of my favorite winter reads when I’m longing to be in the garden. It’s a thoughtful memoir about restoring a small homestead and finding joy in simple living. Into the Wild by Jon KrakauerThe first time I’d read it. Equal parts wanderlust and cautionary tale, with Krakauer telling the tragic story Christopher Johnson while weaving in his own stories of nearly dying in the wilderness. Playground by Richard PowersPowers has a remarkable way of writing epic novels that make you care deeply about the natural world. This one will leave you thinking about the oceans long after you’ve finished it. Jen’s List: This Is Not About Running by Mary CainA powerful memoir from the former elite runner about identity, resilience, and reclaiming her life after experiencing abuse within professional athletics. Paper Girl by Beth MacyA memoir highlighting the value and importance of education in rural communities, told through the eyes of an award-winning journalist. If you enjoy it, also check out Dopesick. Still Writing by Dani ShapiroAn inspiring reflection on the creative life and the importance of continuing to make art, even through uncertainty. Awake by Jen HatmakerA thoughtful memoir about rebuilding a life, embracing change, and discovering that it’s okay to change your mind. Joyride by Susan OrleanA collection of essays that reminds us no story is ever as simple as it first appears. Reading it led me to Saturday Night, The Orchid Thief, and Rin Tin Tin. Now It’s Your Turn: What books are you reading? We'd love to add them to our own lists! The post MONDAY MATTERS with Jen Schwanke and Will Parker – Book Talk appeared first on Principal Matters.

On today's episode of Back Porch Theology takes us into the often-overlooked books of First and Second Chronicles, where Lisa and Allison uncover a beautiful reminder that God is always telling a redemptive story. If you're facing circumstances that feel impossible, this conversation will encourage you to lift your eyes above your current situation and remember that God is still at work, weaving redemption into every chapter of your life. So grab your Bible, a cup of coffee, and pull up a chair on the porch. We're so glad you're here. Scripture References: 1 Chronicles 11:11-14 2 Samuel 23:9-10 2 Chronicles 20:12

God is still writing the story. What looks impossible to us is often the very place whereGod displays His power, answers prayer, and advances His kingdom.

What if the stories shaping your future aren't the ones you're consuming... but the ones you're carrying?In this powerful episode, Helen explores what it means to become a responsible carrier of story in a world where narratives multiply, spread, distort, and shape reality faster than ever before.Drawing together the themes woven throughout the Stories in Our DNA season, Helen introduces her Story Responsibility Framework - a practical guide for understanding the stories we tell ourselves, the stories we tell others, the stories we reward, and the stories we ultimately leave behind.Through deeply personal reflections on people-pleasing, visibility, and what Helen calls the "niceness tether," this episode offers an honest exploration of what it means to speak with greater clarity, lead with integrity, and choose the stories we want to carry forward.Because stories don't just entertain us.They train our nervous systems.They shape our relationships.They influence culture.And they become legacy.This is a conversation about voice, responsibility, and the everyday choices that shape the future.You'll discover:✓ Why stories survive when people repeat them, reward them, and embody them✓ How to use the Story Responsibility Framework to navigate everyday life with greater intention✓ Why the stories you tell yourself influence the stories you tell others✓ How uncertainty causes our nervous systems to fill gaps with old survival narratives✓ Why "a gap is not a verdict" and how to become the author of a truer story✓ The hidden ways people diminish their own influence through language✓ Why your attention is shaping culture in an age of amplification✓ How the stories you reward become the stories that survive✓ Why legacy is built through small, everyday behaviours rather than grand gestures✓ How to carry your voice, values, and truth forward with greater courage and clarityResources & LinksHelen Packham Websitehttps://helenpackham.com/Unlock Your Origin Storyhttps://helenpackham.com/unlock-your-origin-story/Land a TEDx Talkhttps://helenpackham.com/tedx-checklist/Listen to the Podcasthttps://helenpackham.com/podcast/Enjoyed the episode?If this conversation encouraged you to rethink the stories you're carrying, rewarding, or passing on:⭐ Follow Words That Change Lives⭐ Share this episode with someone whose voice deserves to be heard⭐ Leave a rating and review on your favourite podcast platformEvery review helps these conversations travel further.The future isn't only shaped by the loudest stories.It's shaped by the stories we choose to carry forward.

Send us your feedback — we're listeningJeremiah 29:11 — God Is Still Writing A Hopeful Future Recorded live from London, England — where faith meets the world in daily prayer and global hope. Chicago • Lagos • Singapore • Christchurch • Tokyo HOPE • FUTURE • ENCOURAGEMENT midday prayer for hope and direction • Christian encouragement for uncertain seasons • trusting God with the future • finding renewed hope in Christ Jeremiah 29:11 (NIV) “For I know the plans I have for you,” declares the Lord, “plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you hope and a future.” There are moments when people begin to wonder whether their best days are behind them. Disappointments can leave questions. Delays can create frustration. Unanswered prayers can sometimes make the future appear uncertain or unclear. When life does not unfold as expected, hope can quietly become harder to hold onto. Many people understand that feeling. The people who first received Jeremiah's words were living through uncertainty themselves. Their circumstances were difficult, and the future seemed unclear. Yet God spoke words of hope into that situation. He reminded them that their story was not finished and that His plans extended beyond what they could presently see. That same truth remains powerful today. We may not understand every chapter while we are living through it, but God sees the whole story. What feels delayed to us is never forgotten by Him. What feels uncertain to us remains fully known to Him. The Lord is still working, still guiding, and still preparing good things beyond what we can presently imagine. Father, thank You that my future is safely held in Your hands. Thank You that Your plans are greater than my fears and Your wisdom is greater than my understanding. Jesus, when I become discouraged or impatient, help me trust You more deeply. Remind me that You are working even when I cannot see immediate results. Help me place my future into Your care and walk forward with hope. Holy Spirit, renew my expectation today. Replace discouragement with confidence, uncertainty with trust, and fear with hope. Help me remember that God's faithfulness continues beyond every season I face. Across the world, from Chicago to Lagos, from Singapore to Christchurch and Tokyo, may discouraged hearts discover renewed hope, uncertain minds find fresh confidence, and every listener experience the assurance that God is still writing a hopeful future. Jesús, gracias porque mi futuro está seguro en Ti. Jesus, obrigado porque o meu futuro está seguro em Ti. Jesus, salamat dahil nasa Iyong mga kamay ang aking kinabukasan. Father, thank You that my story is still unfolding in Your care. Amen.

What does a beloved children's book have to do with your destiny? Everything. Inspired by Eric Carle's The Very Hungry Caterpillar, this powerful message explores the hidden truth woven into one of the world's most iconic stories — that you were created with a purpose, and God is not done with you yet. Just like the caterpillar, you may be crawling through something painful right now. But the plan, potential, and purpose of flight existed before you even began. Through the stories of Jesus, Lazarus, and real-life testimonies of transformation, this message reminds us that what looks like an ending is often just a chapter — and the best part is still ahead. What you'll discover: • Why the struggle is part of the process, not the end of the story • How God sees you in your pain — and what He's preparing you for • Why your current circumstances do not define you The power of the empty tomb, the unbound Lazarus, and the scars that don't have the final word

In this final episode of our six-part miniseries, we're in January 2026. Kate's already researching her next book, and it turns out it connects everything she's ever written. Kevin has one goal: to finish first. Katie Rose has a draft proposal, three kids under five, and no intention of stopping. And Sara has a message for anyone who's ever thought about writing a book. BIO Podcast producer Jenny Skoog guides listeners through this series' finale. “Four Paths, One Impossible Dream” follows four authors navigating the challenges of writing biography. Over eight months in 2025, BIO Podcast producer Jenny Skoog spoke with comedian Sara Benincasa, tackling Abraham Lincoln; professor Kate Culkin, working on a book about Ralph Waldo Emerson's daughters; historian Kevin McGruder, who has spent decades researching Harlem Renaissance writer Rudolph Fisher; and journalist Katie Rose Quandt, on the challenges of completing a book proposal while pregnant.

She sat at that defense table for three weeks like a statue. That's the word a juror used — statue. No fear, no grief, no visible seam where the performance ended and a real person began. And then the judge read guilty, and for the first time, she bowed her head.What broke in that moment? That's what this episode is really about.The jury told us something important after the verdict. They didn't want to convict her. They walked into that deliberation room hoping the defense's version would hold up — the sloppy investigation, the biased detectives, the husband with a secret drug habit. They wanted to believe her. Three hours later, they voted unanimously to put her away. The evidence didn't just beat reasonable doubt. It beat a jury full of people who were rooting for her.On Hidden Killers, I'm going through everything that comes next. The appeal — and why the judge spent the entire trial quietly dismantling the grounds for one. The twenty-six pending financial felonies that haven't seen a courtroom yet. And the psychological profile of a woman who, when confronted with the worst moments of this story, responded by writing. A grief book dedicated to the husband she allegedly poisoned. A six-page letter from jail scripting testimony for her own brother. Two pieces of writing. One pattern. Same instinct every time the narrative needed protecting.Does the guilty verdict break the story — or just change its title? The grieving widow is now the wrongfully convicted mother. Same character. Different chapter.Sentencing is May 13th — Eric Richins' 44th birthday. This is where it gets heavier before it gets quieter.Join Our SubStack For AD-FREE ADVANCE EPISODES & EXTRAS!: https://hiddenkillers.substack.com/Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

This week on the "A Cup of Gratitude" podcast, we're having a special episode where I share with you about my new book, "Holy Plot Twists." This book is an overflow of the podcast. God led me to share vulnerable and pivotal times in my life when He came in and worked things out for good, when He turned things around and made them usable. God can take the sharpest, most broken pieces and put them back together in a way that allows us to reach others with our story. I've realized that the way we go into all the world is by sharing our story; it's Unique, no one else in the world has one like ours. It is the way that we can connect to other people and share God's story with them share his goodness and his character this special episode gives you a synopsis of the book explains where it came from and why I put the energy and time into it to give it as a gift to you I also talk about a special contest we're doing where anyone can get a copy of the book take a picture and send it to me and then come on the podcast as a guest this special episode is short and sweet but packed with goodness I hope you'll listen in and have a great day!Enter the Podcast Contest !!!Win a chance to be a Guest on a special episode of “A Cup of Gratitude” podcast

Author Dani Shapiro teases out the kaleidoscopic layers of Jewishness, loss, secrets and discoveries in her award-winning novel, Signal Fires. Signal Fires, winner of the National Jewish Book Award for Fiction. Dani Shapiro is the author of eleven books, and the host and creator of the hit podcast Family Secrets. Her most recent novel, Signal Fires, was named a best book of 2022 by Time Magazine, Washington Post, Amazon, and others, and is a national bestseller. Her most recent memoir, Inheritance, was an instant New York Times Bestseller, and named a best book of 2019 by Elle, Vanity Fair, Wired, and Real Simple. Both Signal Fires and Inheritance were winners of the National Jewish Book Award. Dani's work has been published in fourteen languages and she's currently developing Signal Fires for its television adaptation. Dani's book on the process and craft of writing, Still Writing, has just been reissued on the occasion of its tenth anniversary. She occasionally teaches workshops and retreats, and is the co-founder of the Sirenland Writers Conference in Positano, Italy.

In 2013, novelist and memoirist Dani Shapiro published her craft/memoir Still Writing: The Perils and Pleasures of a Creative Life. This year, the book celebrates its 10th anniversary with a re-release and new foreword. Dani joined Marrie Stone in 2013 to talk about it (their interview can be found here), and joins her again to revisit it. They talk about that intervening decade and what's happened in Dani's life and career since the book's first publication. Dani discusses what aspects of Still Writing are truer today than before, how her thinking has evolved around issues such as dealing with distractions, self-sabotage, writerly authority, memoirs versus novels, and much more. (In the interview, she recommends an essay by Alexander Chee that can be found here.) Dani uses her own experiences across her many novels and memoirs to shed light on the writing process, its many hardships, and great gratifications.
