  • Cart Before The Horse
    Nov 9 2022

    We've all done it, whether it be writing or some other project. We put that cart before the horse and crack that whip and wonder why we don't take off. It helps to have a plan and actually follow it in an orderly fashion.
    Authors all over are using Mood Boards, newsletters and more. What are the pros and cons? What do you prefer? Are you overwhelmed by all of the tips and tricks out there? Pick and choose, you have that power!

  • Author Interview ~ Samantha Verba
    Nov 2 2022

    First, disclaimer: Warning, adult language. I bleeped the first one and then said... bah! So you have been warned!
    Samantha Verba is my author guest today. She wrote the YA book "Can't Wait To Be Dead".
    This is a fairly long episode, but we had a lot of fun doing it! Shout outs to Stephen Kind, John Cusak, Ed Sheeran, along with a LOT of book recommendations! It's like we were just dishing up the gossip while discussing her book. I hope you enjoy it as much as we did!
    Buy her book here: https://www.amazon.com/Cant-Wait-Dead-Samantha-Verba/dp/B0BFBQMPR5
