Are you experiencing God’s provision in every stage of your writing process? Annette Griffin shares the natural process of birthing a book and how God is present throughout the process.

Welcome to Your Best Writing Life, an extension of the Blue Ridge Mountains Christian Writers Conference held in the beautiful Blue Ridge Mountains of NC. I’m your host, Linda Goldfarb. Each week, I bring tips and strategies from writing and publishing industry experts to help you excel in your craft. I’m so glad you’re listening in. During this episode, you’ll learn about the birthing process of a book.

My industry expert is Annette Marie Griffin. Annette is an award-winning author and speaker who writes timeless pieces to help readers find home. She’s a columnist and acquisitions editor for StarLight Magazine and has written hundreds of articles for kids and adults throughout her writing career. Her newest book, Fearfully and Wonderfully Made, will be released soon through Christian Art Gifts.

Alright, let’s head into our content for today… the Process of Birthing a Book.

  • *How abiding in Christ is the consummation of our gifts and talents (John 15:4-5)
  • *The similarities between each stage of birthing a baby and birthing a book 
  • *The special provision God gives us through every stage and challenge of writing for Him. 
  •  *Our book babies are His special creation–predestined to accomplish His will for His purposes. The hard part can be releasing our “babies” to Him and letting Him have His way with them.
