The Write That Book Summer ‘21 Pop Up Group opened on Tuesday.  

Over 500 people have already joined. You can go straight to it here. 

Here are a selection of the wonderful introductions.

Which one resonates the most with you? 

Stefanie Lillie - I have written a children’s book and already have received some great advice from the How to Be Brilliant page. 

Chris Roberts – I’ve been writing since I was about 13 but have never done anything with it. I’m now 40 years old and the realisation I won’t live forever has now dawned on me. So, no time like the present. 

Lisa Clifford - I’ve always wanted to write a book, but I get stuck. 

Kitty French - I have one novel in the editing stage, one novel half-finished and am currently working on my first poetry book. 

Jan Murphy – I’m a 67yr old, retired grandmother of seven, who has been writing for as long as I can remember...I’m VERY excited.  

Milan Iz Hoste - My goal is to write two books this summer. One on breathing and the other on conscious life.

You can visit the group here.

Jane Culley – Myself and a co-writer have written a book, it’s sort of Jilly Cooper meets Dan Brown. I have started on the next one and enjoy the process. We are not published yet, but ever hopeful. 

Keith Tucker – ‘I kept a journal of some of my time in the army. Now attempting a novel. I just wish I had written earlier, but I thought my dyslexia would stop me. It didn't.’ 

Becky Davies - Writing a children's book presently with illustrations. I have non-Hodgkin lymphoma and I'd like to publish it as an accomplishment. Complete novice, not a clue what I should be doing next. 

Ana Remigio - I have been toying with the idea of writing a book about Breast Implant Illness, which I have been a victim of. I know what I want the book to do, I know what message it will send. 

Jilli Moult - I'm absolutely saturated with ideas, but I never manage to get anything tangible written down. 

Think what you will learn just by being part of this group? 

Louise Bourdon - I am in the process of writing a few books but no idea how to get published! 

Pippa McKean - I have an idea for a manual-style book aimed at women from their late 30’s to early 50’s that want to focus on self-development and make lasting change. 

Andy Grant – I am trying to figure out how to write an almost memoir-style book about my fire service career. I have a title and basis for it, but have never written anything like that before so am intrigued to get some ideas. 

Julie Marie Jones - I am writing non-fiction, covering my 30 years of studying and travelling in Israel and Palestine. 

Dawn Dobson - People tell me that I should tell my story… finding out I was 5 months pregnant at age 45 (I was told ‘the chemo will make you infertile’)! 

I think this year hundreds of first time and experienced authors are going to write, publish and sell their books.
