Your First Million Words: Finding the Story Inside You by Jeff Wheeler (2019) Amberlin

Jeff Wheeler is a best selling fantasy author who is also deeply religious and worked many years for Intel.  This is a tretise on how he continued on with his dream of becoming a writer in the face of disasters, raising a family, going on a mission, serving in various leadership capacities in the church, and stumbling through years of trying to break into becoming a published writer, even publishing his own e-zine and books.  The basic conclusion is to be prepared for the consequences of what you want.
