Hi!

I started writing my first novel in 2007. Back then, I consumed all of the author, agent, and editor blogs I could find. And while the advice and tips were all helpful, what I really wanted was a peek into the daily life of a published author.

That’s my goal with this newsletter, along with my YouTube channel: to share the reality of writing fiction for a living. Which, to be honest, is often a lot more boring than #authorlife on social media would have us believe!
