Words can heal, connect, uplift, inspire. How will you use yours?
My name is Beth Kempton and I have been in love with words and books all my life, but I didn’t start writing books until I was nearly 40. Now I’m a grateful bestselling non-fiction author, and my books have been translated into 29 languages. My seventh book, ‘MA: Japanese wisdom for a spacious life’ will be published in February 2027. (Click here to find out how you can get free access to a beautiful virtual weekend retreat when you pre-order MA today). I know from experience the joy and opportunity that can come from writing. I also know the self-doubt and fear that comes with the territory. That’s why, when I’m not writing my own words, I help others to write theirs. To date I have guided and supported over 50,000 writers from all over the world through my online courses and run one of the most popular (and lovely) online writing communities in the world, SoulCircle, hosted on Substack (find out more here).
If you are reading this, you are ready. I see you there, with your writing dream. Is it the writing life you want? Your name on a book cover? Your words in the hands of others, inspiring them? Or simply to find a way to use words to heal yourself, or capture your experience of this wild and beautiful world? Whatever you want from writing, you just need to begin. Pick up your pen and write. Go on, that is where it all starts.
