God completes the work in you. And then He uses the story of that work to complete something in someone else.

Your story is not a sidebar to your work. It’s part of the work God is finishing.

When you write from your real-life experiences, especially as a Christian woman, you serve a higher purpose. Your story may help someone heal or even lead them to a decision.

If you don't write your book, life will go on. You'll keep building. You'll keep showing up. But you'll also keep wondering: "What if I had said yes" to the opportunity to be a published author?
