Please note: due to the extreme heat in the UK on the day of recording, the audio cuts out at some points. Apologies!
Pride Month is over and just in time since TB’s left arm is rebelling about all the long hours at the laptop while launching the Pride Collection. She actually lost feeling in two fingers and it wasn’t until heading to New Mexico without the laptop that the pain eased. Miranda threw TB under the bus in front a roomful of people at GCLS while they accepted a Goldie for The AM Show.
It’s hot as heck in Britain and Clare almost melted during the recording. She’s just returned from two weeks off, but dove right back into work on her Christmas story because what better way is there to deal with the heat than to write about Christmas-y weather. Clare’s launched a surprise Italian translation of Before You Say I Do.
While at GCLS, many people told TB they enjoyed the show, but TB can’t remember everyone’s names. She wants to say thanks to everyone for being supportive in New Mexico and for being loyal listeners to the podcast.
They crack on to the topic: half-year review. Clare did some digging to compare her progress to the goals she set at the beginning of the year, while TB winged it, which sums up their personalities. However, in a surprising twist, TB was much kinder to herself during the episode and it must be the result of the heat wave, making her softer, while Clare was much harsher on herself. Have a listen to learn where they’ve succeeded and when they pivoted.
How was your first half of the year?
Head over to lesbianswhowrite.com, and leave a comment on the episode. Or you can email them at: lesbianswhowrite@gmail.com.
Next week they’ll be back to dish about conferences.
Happy listening!
Clare and TB

Hi! I recently came across a new social platform called “Substrack” and wondered if you know of it and if you do, what do you think of it? It’s positioned as “the game-changer in the world of online publishing…”. Also have you considered putting your podcast behind a paywall or making it available to members earlier that to general listeners like for instance do the authors of “The rest is history “ podcast which is very popular? Thank you.
Substack – my bad!
