What would it feel like to hold your first published novel or memoir in your hands?
I did in 2017, and it is an absolutely incredible feeling! Here I am the day I opened the first shipment of books!
What would it do for your life if you could write and travel?
Here I am in Lebanon in 2006 doing research for my novel.
Again, I spent my life doing both. My writing career has taken me all over the world. Here I am in Beirut in 2006 and just last year in Berlin.
Here are my kids in Berlin. They traveled with me there just last autumn (2019).
Do you think the best way to add a lasting legacy of peace and hope to the world is through your writing?
I agree! That's why my first published book had social justice themes. It won a Reader's Favorite award for social issues.
How do you know you're ready?
You'll know you're ready to Step Into Your Story if you:
- Have written a little all your life but had doubts about writing a book.
- Submitted a book ages ago, in the land before the internet, and got a lot of rejections.
- Battled with imposter syndrome, feeling like a failure, analysis-paralysis and still knew deep inside you was a book.
- Talk to your inner creative spirit about your ideas, poems, blogs, or life stories and imagine where they'll end up.
- Battle with little gremlins of jealousy as you watch other people write books and make money from them knowing you could do the same if you only knew how.
- Listen helplessly to your inner critic who tells you you're not good enough, talented enough, smart enough to ever get published.
- Feel blocked creatively, stuck somewhere in the writing process, and you can't get out or see over the top of the stuckness.
- And yet, you also yearn to give back to the world. And, you still want to go on...
