What if the book that’s been whispering to you isn’t just an idea… but a living energy asking to be born?

In today’s episode of The Happy Publishing Podcast, Erica Glessing opens the door to the mysterious, exhilarating moment when a book wants to be written — and why so many aspiring authors talk themselves out of answering that creative call.

From the crackling electricity of a brand-new idea to the paralyzing questions of ROI, worthiness, and “Will anyone care?”, Erica gently unpacks the emotional tug-of-war that every author faces. She shares stories from the writers she’s coached — including the woman with seven half-started books, and another who finally wrote her miracle-filled memoir after years of hiding her truth.

Erica also reveals the soulful way books choose their authors, why certain topics arrive for multiple writers at once, and how creativity flows differently when led by intuition instead of fear. You’ll hear behind-the-scenes magic from her own journey with Happiness Quotations and her upcoming book The Magic of Horses, filled with stunning stories and imagery from the animal world.

If you’ve been sitting on a manuscript, a miracle story, or a whisper of an idea that won’t leave you alone… this episode will invite you back into your natural creative flow. You’ll learn how to step out of your critical mind, listen to the timing of your soul, and finally say yes to the book that’s been waiting for you.

Erica closes the episode with an encouraging message: your story is yours to tell — and someone out there needs it. If you want guidance, coaching, or publishing support, you can reach her at [email protected] or download her free gift at HappyPublishing.online.
