151: How to Write a Book in Three Steps with Holly Compton

from The Keep Writing Podcast Hosted by Nika Maples

As writers, we often tend to overthink the process of writing a book. We like to have things neat and tidy, having the entire outline and storyline mapped out and organized. Or we can tend to feel like a complete mess because the project feels too big and we have no idea where to start. Friend, it’s time to simplify the process. In this week’s episode, we learn all about how "Keep Writing" student, Holly Compton wrote her entire book, front to back, in just six weeks! She did this by following a simple 3-step process that we teach inside of the Anointed Writers program. Having loved writing ever since she was a child, Holly mainly focused on poetry with the hopes of writing a book one day, but never knowing what that might look like. She spent years holding the idea of a book within her missionary’s heart and dreamed of sharing the message that God had planted in her. She just didn’t know how to start. Early in January 2022, Holly came across an ad for the "Keep Writing" course and knew it was exactly what she needed! Combining the guidance she received in the course with the guidance and anointing she received from the Lord, Holly was able to finish her book and begin her journey to publication!
