Should you write what you know—even if it’s deeply personal? In this episode of The Christian Indie Writers' Podcast, we’re talking about how to weave real-life experiences into your fiction in a way that adds emotional depth and authenticity, without turning your novel into a memoir.
You’ll learn how to balance truth with creativity, protect relationships, and use your story to glorify God. We also share practical tips for fictionalizing personal events and knowing when it’s time to let go or revise. Whether you're writing from pain, joy, or testimony, this episode will help you tell your truth through fiction—wisely and well.
