Can you build a long and successful career as a writer?

My guest on this episode is Linguistics professor Julie Tetel Andresen. Not only has she published more than 35 books, but she also writes in many different genres, including romance, police procedurals, and crime thrillers.

I encourage you to listen until the end of the episode, as Julie reveals the importance of a backlist and why it's almost as important as the book you are currently working on.

But before that, I was interested in discovering more about Julie's take on sustaining a rewarding writing career that lasts a lifetime.

In this episode, we discuss:

What it means to get into your writing shapeHow to balance writing with a career and familyWhy romance is a very expansive genreJulie's process for writing a bookHow a good editor can make all the differenceHow Julie markets her writing
