In this brand-new interview, I deep dive into the who, why, and how of finding your "one-click" readers as a fiction author.
In the interview, we answer questions like...
π‘ Who are your perfect readers?
π How do you find them? (strategies and tools)
π Is niching down is better than trying to appeal wide (and why)?
π€ Is it possible to niche down too far?
π΅ Will narrowing my reader audience hurt my book sales?
β
We also talk about one of the publication strategies that frustrates me the most as a professional editor...
π° Waiting (and waiting and waiting) to publish your first book and why you should not do this!

Sometimes the story we're trying to tell is not the one that comes out on...
Hi Reader! Have you ever run from a dinosaur? No? Well, if you're curious, it looks like this... (Yes, that really is me flailing away from a T-Rex.) As creatives, we can find inspiration anywhere, and thinking back on my family trip to Hawaii made me realize that I'm real damn good at empowering my own worst fears. Looking at that video now is fun. I think about how well it turned out, how comical my arm-waving looks. But then I remember my mindset in the moment, when the tour guide told us...
Hi Reader! Have you ever read a book you just cannot stop thinking about? Well that's me right now with A Court of Thorns and Roses by Sarah J. Maas. Let's take a moment here to chat about a little quirk of mine that gets me into so much trouble. I am STUBBORN.
