The Writer's Miracle Method
A Live Month-Long Path to Writing with More Peace and Clarity with Debra Engle
Weekdays, November 2–30, 2026
9 a.m. to 9:30 a.m. Eastern (6 a.m. to 6:30 a.m. Pacific)
Every morning, you wake up with a choice.
You can begin the day listening to fear. Or you can begin by listening to something deeper. For years, bestselling author, teacher, and writing mentor Debra Engle noticed that the greatest obstacle facing writers wasn’t a lack of talent or discipline.
It was fear.
Who am I to think I can write?
Why would anyone want to read my stories?
What if I succeed?
What if I fail?
What if I’m not enough?
She watched brilliant writers spend years trying to overcome those fears by working harder, learning more craft, or waiting for inspiration to arrive. It rarely worked.
Eventually, she realized something that changed her own writing, and the lives of writers she has mentored:
The quality of our writing depends on whether we’re writing from fear or love.
That realization became The Writer’s Miracle Method, Debra’s new book from St. Martin’s Essentials.Now, for the first time, she’s inviting writers to experience its daily practice together.
Read the Book. Then Live the Practice.
The Writer’s Miracle Method isn’t simply a book to read. It’s a practice to live.
The book launches October 13 and is available for preorder here.
Then, beginning November 2, you can join Debra and a community of writers every weekday morning to experience the practice together.
For twenty weekday mornings, you’ll begin each day not with email, social media, your To Do list, or a knot in your stomach, but with a half hour devoted to becoming the writer—and the person—you most want to be.
Faculty
Debra Landwehr Engle is an author, writing mentor, and spiritual teacher, as well as executive director of Story Summit. Her career began as a newspaper copywriter and Better Homes and Gardens book editor before she launched her own freelance business, writing hundreds of articles for national publications.
She's the author of The Only Little Prayer You Need (an international bestseller with a foreword by the Dalai Lama), Let Your Spirit Guides Speak (a Nautilus Award winner), and her debut novel Twenty, an Amazon Kindle #1 bestseller. Her newest book, The Writer's Miracle Method, offers a daily practice to help writers move from fear to love in their creative work.
As executive director of Story Summit, Debra helps emerging writers connect with the world's most successful authors and entertainment professionals, teaching classes, mentoring one-on-one, and leading retreats worldwide.
About The Writer's Miracle Method
Part practical guide, part spiritual companion, and part daily creative practice, The Writer's Miracle Method offers an entirely different approach to writing.
Rather than focusing first on productivity, publishing, or platform, it begins with you, the writer. What self-doubts stand in your way? What would be possible if you created from peace instead of pressure?
Through a simple daily practice called the Miracle Meeting, the book helps you quiet the inner critic, reconnect with purpose, and approach both writing and life from a place of clarity.
As Debra says, “Our fears can cripple us, or they can be transformed into a deeper connection with ourselves and Spirit. The Miracle Method helps you make that shift.” This November, you have the chance to put those words into practice.
Why Practice Together?
Could you do the Miracle Meeting on your own? Absolutely. But something important happens when writers gather every morning with the same intention.
For thirty minutes, you’ll step away from the noise of everyday life and enter a shared creative space. You’ll remember that you aren’t alone, that your self-doubts are universal, and that you have the power to change your beliefs from fear to love. During our month together, you’ll witness breakthroughs—not only your own, but those of other writers who are making the same journey.
Community has always been at the heart of Story Summit. And this month may become one of the deepest expressions of that community yet. As each person moves forward in courage, hope, and confidence, everyone grows.
Experience the Miracle Method Live Every Morning
Every Miracle Meeting will be led live by Debra. These are not prerecorded meditations. They are live experiences, guided in real time by someone who has spent decades helping writers quiet fear, trust their intuition, and reconnect with the deeper source of their creativity.
The visualizations themselves have become one of Debra’s signature teaching tools. Her mentees have described them as calming, inspiring, healing, and transformational—not because they magically solve creative problems, but because they help you return to the place within where your creativity flourishes and thrives.
Why Is the Miracle Method a Month-Long Program?
It takes practice to change mental patterns of self-doubt and fear. One Miracle Meeting may change your morning. But in a month, Miracle Meetings can begin changing your habits. These daily practices will change your thinking, your relationship with fear, and your relationship with yourself and the Source of your desire to write.
The book has 30 days of practices, and we’ll do 20 of them together during weekday mornings.
By the end of November, you won’t simply have completed 20 sessions together. You’ll have established a rhythm that can continue for years to come.
