Description

Brooke Warner has spent her life finding ways to help people share their stories. She had a successful career in the traditional publishing industry before co-founding She Writes Press, an independent publishing company that was honoured as the 2019 Independent Publisher of the Year.

As an author, she’s published several books including Write On, Sisters! and Green-light Your Book. She’s also written books on the topic of memoir writing and helps people craft and shape their own stories to share with an audience.

Brooke is among a unique group of people who have spent time as a Tumbleweed at the Shakespeare and Company bookstore in Paris, France and in this conversation she shares about her experience living in this iconic bookstore.

She’s inspired many with her TEDx talk: “Green-Light Revolution: Your Creative Life on Your Terms”. And weekly, you can tune into her podcast called Write-Minded: Weekly Inspiration for Writers which provides a blend of inspiration and real talk about the ups and downs of the writing life.

On this episode, host Angela de Burger chats with Brooke about why she’s inspired to bring important stories to the forefront, how she followed her heart to stay true to her professional and personal goals, and her belief that everyone has the ability to green-light their own creative projects.
