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.
It might sound cliché, but we can’t help but see the parallels in the creation, growth, preparation, waiting, and anticipation of birthing both a book and a baby. I’ve lost track of how many people have commented that I’m birthing two babies this year.
Today I’m sharing the 5 lessons I’ve learned on birthing a book (or a baby). Join me as I talk through my latest post for Write My Story. Just as promised, I’m bringing you behind-the-scenes on some of the disappointments and fears in this birthing journey.
