Living in the Pages

Episode 45 - Skye Warren

"Over the course of writing this book I ended up finding a therapist and
saying things out loud that I had never said in my entire life...just so I
could write this book! So I have to tell you, the amount of relief that I
have written it, and it is done, is incredible.”
— Skye Warren

Episode 44 - Samantha Young

"If my brain is starting to hurt with writer’s block, then it’s time to
just find something to distract me—because I always find that if I am
distracted, that’s when I’m hit with inspiration.”
— Samantha Young

Episode 43 - J. Sterling

"It probably sounds backwards, but I'm trying to emotionally detach and
make it not so serious...They're not necessarily life-changing books, but
for me, when I'm writing them, they are coming from a place that was
life-changing in my heart.”
— J. Sterling

Episode 42 - Max Monroe

"Since we started writing together, it's just been such a relief to share
in not only the good times that you experience, but also the
struggles—because they're there, too. So, it is hard for me to picture
writing without her, at this point, for sure.”
— Max Monroe

Episode 41 - Kim Holden

"There are those people that can sit down and write every day and they
write consistently amazing books and they're built to write. But I'm not
that person—so it’s good to have found what works for me.”
— Kim Holden

Episode 40 - Julia Whelan

"I feel like this just slipped somewhere into my unconscious, and it's
taken a decade—or fifteen years now, at this point—to come out.”
— Julia Whelan

Episode 39 - Helen Hoang

"It felt like me embracing myself, and it felt really healthy. I loved
doing that.”
— Helen Hoang

Episode 38 - Devney Perry

"If you would have asked me last March when I hit ‘publish’ on that first
book if I would have the relationships with readers and fellow authors and
bloggers that I have today, I would have said ‘You’re crazy.’ It’s
wonderful…and it makes it all so much more worthwhile—and so fun.”
— Devney Perry

Episode 37 - Isaac Marion

"I thought this would be any interesting way to explore that feeling
without it just being me talking about being sad all the time. It would be
a slightly more fun way of exploring a very dark topic.”
— Isaac Marion

Episode 36 - Cat Porter

"My big dream was 'I want to be an actor,' and the secret dream was 'I want
to write!'”
— Cat Porter
