Send us a text Today's episode of The Writing Process is with a kick arse romance author who has overcome so much. Chatting with Allison A.

2025/12/25

Send us a text Today's Writing Process episode with fantasy author Elisse Hay. This chat was so much fun and listening to Elisse's writing process and how she tackles her stories is so much fun - as someone who is neurodivergent it was fun to get a sneak peak into how she makes it work for what she needs. Fun fact: Elisse was the first indie author that I bought when I first starting buying indie books and it was such a fan girl moment. Author Bio: Elisee Hay is the author of Some...

Send us a text Today's Writing Process episode is with Fantasy author Abbigal Madder aka Abbie as I know her. I did this interview long before I really knew Abbie and she is such a hoot to be around and chat to. Through all of these podcast I ask the same questions and get such different responses from every one of my guests, which is why I love writers so damn much. Abbie's approach is also chaotic and planster coded. I would love to know what you think about it. About Abbi...

2025/04/11

Send us a text Come inside the curtain of Supanova Brisbane - most lovingly knowns as Brisnova - and chat to the plethora of indie authors and a few traditonally published authors there. This was recorded in November 2024. My second supanova and honestly, probably the most chilled and exhausting event I've ever done. It spanned over three days from 10-6, which as a self proclaimed ADHD introvert that was a lot of masking and talking. But so well worth it. This year, I could have sworn t...
