Inspired to Write | How to Write a Book, Fiction Writing, Creative Process, Plot Arc, Character Development
Do you feel called to write a fiction book? Do you want to authentically honor God through your creativity without sounding preachy? Are you finding yourself in the cycle of constantly rewriting your first draft? Are you wondering how to write characters people will want to read about and plot points that will keep your reader on the edge of their seats? I am so excited you are here! This podcast will help you finish that book you’ve always wanted to write and honor God through your creativity! Hey, I’m Alivia. I’m a writer who loves Jesus, a book coach, and a certified developmental editor. For years I shut down my unique voice because I was so concerned with what culture dictated would make me a good artist. I constantly compared myself to others. I was stuck in writing routines that didn’t work for me. I could never get the motivation to write. As a result, every single one of my creative projects fell flat. Until one day, I partnered with the Holy Spirit in my creative process, and I finally felt the permission to write the book I LOVED while remaining in alignment with who God uniquely created me to be. I created a simple outlining system that got me more excited and motivated to write! I found my content was resonating on a much deeper level with my audience, prompting authentic conversations about my faith. And I’m sharing it with you! If you’re ready to find a writing system that works for you, authentically represent God in your work, create characters and plot points your reader will resonate with, and finally have the motivation to finish your book – this podcast is for you! Grab a notebook and a pen and let’s get inspired to write!

Hey friends,
I've been working on some exciting new things for our community and the week got away from me, so I thought I'd play an old favorite. This is the very first episode from over a YEAR ago! Can you believe it? The podcast is officially one year old! Even though it is the oldest episode, it still continues to be the most popular episode week after week. I hope this blesses you and encourages you.
Most of all I hope you see that you were created for such a time as this to write your book and honor God through your creativity.
With love,
Alivia
