Zipper merging is the recommended way to merge according to road experts. Londoner Abes Oozeer is in the process of writing a book about it and other road-related frustrations and joined Mike Stubbs to talk about it.

Lucy reassures listeners that the emotional rollercoaster of writing is normal and that nothing written is wasted. This episode is a treasure trove for anyone looking to understand the publishing landscape and navigate the authorial journey with confidence.

For as long as I can remember, I have always wanted to write a book! It feels weird to say out loud, but I know that by sharing this with you, I will also hold myself accountable and publish this thing. I've had a few books stewing around in my brain for a few years now. But, after taking a swing at a partnered brand deal a few years ago and deciding it wasn't the right fit for my first book, I've been a bit deflated. But people like Justin Moore, who wrote Sponsor Magnet, and Jay Clouse, whom I hosted for a super inspiring conversation and is in the throes of writing his own conversation, have helped me to reconsider.

In this episode, Claire Pedrick,  Anna Inama and Andy Fryer talk about writing a book together. They cover  the challenges and joys of co-writing, and the importance of finding a common voice.    We delve into the practical aspects of writing, including setting deadlines, managing feedback, and involving beta readers.    The trio also explore how AI can assist in untangling complex writing, generating reflection questions, and facilitating collaborative writing. They highlight the importance of creating practical and accessible content for a global audience and invite listener interaction and feedback.   Key Takeaways: Co-writing requires alignment and a common voice. Setting clear deadlines is crucial. Feedback from beta readers is essential for improvement. The writing process can be emotionally challenging. It's important to balance writing with ongoing coaching work. Revisions are a natural part of the writing process. Clear guidance for beta readers enhances their feedback. Writing should be accessible to non-native English speakers. The writing process can be enhanced through technology and collaboration. Sound Bites: "It's much bigger than I'd realized." "We cannot fall out on this book."

Moving beyond logistics and outlines, Sharna takes listeners into the defining moment that changed everything—walking into an ultrasound room pregnant and leaving empty, only to discover that the silence and dismissal that followed was almost as devastating as the loss itself.

In this episode I share about my journey to beome a published author!  Work with me at KatieDodd.com

In this episode, I share the heart behind my brand-new children's book, Where Does Jesus Live?—a project born from prayer, parenthood, and a deep desire to help kids know that Jesus is close.We dive into why this book matters, how it came to life through Backseat Media, and why Catholic parents today are hungry for content that's not just safe—but soul-forming. Whether you're a parent, godparent, teacher, or just someone passionate about evangelization, this story is for you.This episode is a window into the mission of forming little hearts for Christ and creating content that plants seeds of faith from the car seat to the classroom.

AP correspondent Charles de Ledesma reports after British journalist Dom Phillips was killed while researching an ambitious book on how to protect the world's largest rainforest, friends vowed to finish the project. Three years later, their task is complete.

So excited to share and for you to listen to my friend Samantha Joy's testimony.! She's an identity coach, author, publisher, and the brilliant mind behind the podcast 'Detached.' Through her work she helps people release the weight of judgment, shed limiting stories and fully embrace who they are. As the publisher of Landon Hail Press, she empowers writers to share their most vulnerable stories, guiding them to transform pain into purpose. Sam and Kayla explore the themes of self-discovery, vulnerability, and the power of storytelling. They discuss the importance of trusting the process of personal growth, the dangers of people-pleasing, and the significance of embracing change and letting go of old identities. They also emphasize that everyone has a story to tell and that writing can be a transformative journey. Takeaways Detachment is a lifelong journey of shedding societal expectations. Vulnerability allows for deeper connections and relationships. Writing can be a powerful tool for releasing shame and finding purpose. The journey to authenticity is filled with challenges and growth opportunities. People pleasing can become toxic and detrimental to self. Sharing stories can empower others and create community. Everyone has a unique story that deserves to be told. Writing a book can be a powerful tool for self-discovery.

You'll learn why consistency isn't just a discipline issue, why AI shouldn't write your book, and how your Human Design influences how you show up as a writer.Whether you're working on a spiritual development book or dream of self-publishing a memoir that changes lives, Domenica's insights will show you what's really getting in the way—and how to move through it with support, structure, and soul.What We Cover in This Episode:✅ What a book coach really does (and how it's different from editing)✅ Why so many would-be authors quit before the book is done✅ The emotional healing that writing a book can unlock✅ How your Human Design type influences your writing process✅ Why Domenica is launching her own publishing house to disrupt the industry✅ The biggest mistake beginner authors make—and how to fix it✅ How publishing a book transforms your business (and your lineage)✅ Domenica's hot take on AI, ghostwriters, and energetic integrity in publishing✅ The link between book writing, long-form content, and passive income✅ Why your book is part of your self-care, not just your careerConnect with Domenica Million:Website: https://wordwitchcc.comInstagram: @wordwitchcc✨ Free gift for Unjaded listeners: [Link provided by Domenica—insert here once available]Loved this conversation?Share it with a friend who's always saying, “I want to write a book.”Connect with Vickie:Instagram: @vickie.dickson

This is the final installment of my talk with Samuel Marquis, author of numerous books of history and historical fiction, including his newest, "Captain Kidd: A True Story of Treasure and Betrayal," a non-fiction look at one of the most notorious “pirates” ever, who also happens to be Samuel's 9th great grandfather.

I'm writing a book! I'm embarking on a new journey—this time, with words instead of miles. I'm thrilled to share that I've signed on with Dutton and Plume at Penguin Random House to write my first book: THE MARATHON BOOK (working title). This is my love letter to the marathon—a deep dive into its greatest moments, the legends who redefined what's possible, and the lessons we can all learn along the way (including my own pursuit of breaking 3 hours). Think history, debates, interviews with some of the best to ever do it, and a whole lot of storytelling that captures what makes this race so special. From Pheidippides to the wildest performances at the Olympics, Boston, New York and other marquee races—I can't wait to dig into it all. Whether you're training for your first marathon, chasing a PR, or just love a good sports story, I can't wait to share this with you.  Follow @themarathonbook on Instagram to keep up with my process and updates. So much more to come, but for now—I'm just at the starting line. Let's go.
