Happy Fall Equinox! Today is the perfect day to share chapter thirty-six of Literary Blend with Diane Billas on creating a writing ritual. From working on manuscripts during a certain time of day and changing up writing locations to creating a writing-work balance and beyond, Diane and I covered it all. I hope our conversation inspires you to create your own writing ritual as you make fabulous progress on your manuscripts.

Wow, I have a truly fantastic chapter for you today. Author and trauma therapist Danielle Render Turmaud joined me for chapter thirty-five to cover mental health and the querying process. We talked about querying through psychological and biological lenses, bringing a research-based flare to how querying affects mental health. I can’t thank Danielle enough for coming on the show and sharing her wisdom with the writing community. I learned so much during our fascinating chat, so I hope you do, too.

We have made it to chapter thirty-four of the show, and wow, it’s a fun one. Kate Pockett, who is one of the co-owners of PopUpPit, joined me to cover Twitter pitch events. From crafting pitches and following rules to having the right author mindset while participating in events, our conversation has it all. Pitch events occur frequently, so I hope my chat with Kate helps you prepare for the next one, whether you’re new to the writing community or have taken part in these events for a while.
