The duo is on a break, but they didn’t want to leave you in a lurch, so they’re replaying some of their most popular episodes.
In this blast from the past, TB had been cranking out the words on the first draft of Heart of Ice, which she recently published. Clare had just returned from a holiday (not knowing this would be the last one for the year), and she was prepping for the Before You Say I Do launch, which became a mega hit.
Also, this was the episode right before TB flew to London, the week before COVID-19 was declared a global pandemic.
The duo moves on to the topic: can you make a full-time living from writing lesbian fiction? They break down the stages of their careers, including when they realized they could support themselves by writing full-time. While it hasn’t been smooth sailing for either, persistence and consistency have helped them stay the course. They outline the key ingredients necessary to continue a writing career and stress the importance of continuing to learn and persevering.
Do you have aspirations of writing full-time?
Head over to www.lesbianswhowrite.com, and leave a comment on the episode. Or you can email them at: lesbianswhowrite@gmail.com.
When they return, they’ll be doing an ask them anything episode, so send in your questions.
Happy listening!
Clare and TB
