Answer

Process means something that is happening. It usually involves many steps. I am in the process of writing. I am going through all the steps of writing.  Usually you follow process with "of" though not always.

Progress can either mean something that advances or something that is happening. It usually informs the reader or listener that something is happening and you don't usually follow it with "of". To me, the quote you gave sounds a little awkward.  You could say "She is in the process of writing." or "Writing is in progress."

Answer

In that example, "to progress" means "to continue to happen". And it is pronounced with emphasis on the second syllable: "proGRESS"

Progress can also be used as a noun, in which case it sounds like "PROgress".

Process means to undergo a specific operation.
Progress means that things continue to happen until a final state is reached.
