021: I Want To Write a Book. Where Do I Start?

About this episode

Soo Jin Lee and Linda Yoon share their journey of writing and publishing their book 'Where I Belong' to inspire others to write.

Soo Jin Lee and Linda Yoon co-wrote an EXCELLENT book called "Where I Belong: Healing Trauma and Embracing Asian American Identity." But this book didn't appear out of thin air. How did it go from idea to the shelf at Barnes and Noble? Linda and Soo Jin saw the lack of resources written by people of color, and decided to contribute to the solution. We hope that the telling of their publishing story will inspire those of you who are thinking of writing your own book! https://yellowchaircollective.com Find book here https://entwinecommunity.org/about @newtherapistfaq
