Welcome to B is for Book Coach. I'm B, midwife of big ideas and book development partner for writers and non writers alike, and today, we’re making space for a guided 5 Minute Outline.Before I finalized this exercise and decided to go ahead with the episode, I looked for any insights Robin Wall Kimmerer had already given about her process of writing Braiding Sweetgrass. If there were contradictions or things that might make this exercise feel constraining or contrived, I wouldn’t do it.Happily, I found what I already suspected to be true about this exercise: no matter who you are and how you write, it’s simply about bringing yourself to the page.- Context for Mirroring Braiding Sweetgrass- Highlights from an interview with Robin Wall Kimmerer- Breakdown of the structure and flow of Braiding Sweetgrass- 5 Minute Outline for an introduction based on Braiding SweetgrassMentions: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=in80NAbp7Xg, https://www.theguardian.com/books/2020/may/23/robin-wall-kimmerer-people-cant-understand-the-world-as-a-gift-unless-someone-shows-them-howFor weekly updates and more levels of support, subscribe on Substack.
