I Want to Write a Book, But…
![Page 3: Get This Story Out of My Head](https://reader034.fdocuments.in/reader034/viewer/2022050614/58a41b131a28abec1a8b4f59/html5/thumbnails/3.jpg)
Tip #1 Acceptance
You’ve been chosen to tell the story. Not a fluke!
The seed has been planted in you.
Acknowledge & accept. Say, “Thank you.” Embrace it!
If you don’t tell it, the Divine will give it to someone else to tell.

Tip #2 Don’t Panic!
You don’t have to have gone to school and majored in English to be a storyteller/writer.
Writing is a practiced skill.
Don’t talk yourself out of trying to tell the story.
You have a RIGHT to tell this story!
Breathe, breathe, breathe!! Settle into the story idea.

Tip #3 Release
Let whatever is in your head come out in whatever form it takes (i.e., bits & pieces).
The story does not have to come to you intact.
Write down what you see, hear, smell, feel, & taste.
Write it all down in a journal or record it on your phone, tape recorder or computer.

Tip #4 Commit
Find a safe, secure, quiet & private space – go into your closet. Commit to your gift.
Ask the Divine for the rest of the story/direction.
Walking or meditating is a great way to connect to creativity and/or the Divine. You are releasing the distraction/drama of the day.
“Be still and know…” –silence is golden.
