Behind-the-Scenes of My Journey to Publishing My Book

Welcome to the first episode of the Path to Published podcast!
2

This is the Path to Published podcast with Ashley Fenker, a series about my journey to self-publish my essay collection with hopes to connect with readers, sell books, and land a traditional publishing deal. Get ready for a deep dive into the intersection between creativity and business, and a dash of real talk about building a career as a working mom.

In this episode, I’m imagining we’re meeting at a party for the first time and you ask me, “What do you do for a living?” I’m revealing why I dread this question, how I wish I would answer it, how many years I’ve been working on my essay collection, and why this feels like the perfect time to publish and share this body of work with the world.

Here is the essay that I referenced in today’s episode: “The Great Seduction of the Personal Essay.”
