🚨New podcast episode! 📚

Flat scenes = lost readers.

In this episode, I discuss how a scene turns or value shifts. Value shifts are a great way to ensure that each scene moves the story forward and pulls its own weight.

🎙️In this episode, I’m pulling back the curtain on my writing life. Last year, I wrote 60K more words than the previous year, and finished two cozy mystery books in a brand-new series. I started experimenting with AI tools for translating books into French. 🇫🇷🤖

How do Aristotle’s storytelling principles apply to novel writing, and can they help you craft a better story?

In this episode, I chat with Doug Vigliotti, author of Aristotle for Novelists, about timeless storytelling ideas and the difference between plot and writing.

🎙️ After 14 months away from the mic, I’m back on The Authorpreneur Podcast.

This episode is a behind-the-scenes look at why I had to stop, burnout, and a bunch of health scares. It’s not all doom and gloom, I also talk about what’s next.

To what end? So, what if I get a different answer? Then I have a problem where I don't know which advice to follow.

So, it's okay for you but not for me. 😂 Honestly, it's insane that Amazon doesn't even understand its own rules. I was considering enrolling in KU, but now that I've experienced this, it's making me pause.

Today, I learned that it's okay for other authors to list comp authors at the bottom of their book descriptions, but it's not okay for me to do this with a new book under a new pen name.

What's with the cherry-picking of the rules?

I just want to say sorry to all my podcast listeners. I’ve been MIA for quite a few months. Of late I’ve become disheartened because there’s another podcast out there with exactly the same name as mine and it has becoming depressing. I don’t know what to do.

Why do I always start my podcast year off with a throat infection and chesty cough?!
