Episode 59: Writing as a Second Career with S.C. Merritt

Hello again! I’m back from our socially distanced trip to my parents’ house and back to podcasting!

Today, I’ve got an interview with cozy mystery author S. C. Merritt, who writes stories set in a small Alabama town full of quirky characters. Her latest–full of movie stars, stills, and secrets–comes out tomorrow. Get Moonshine and Murder here!

I’ve also got something special to share with you all today, a free minicourse on breaking through your writer’s block. In three short lessons, learn some techniques to get you putting words on the page, even on the tough days.

Some of the resources I mentioned in the episode:

Both Reedsy and Draft2Digital offer free formatting tools for both ebook and print.

There are a lot of great online conferences nowadays. One upcoming conference that I know of (and will be speaker for) is the Virginia Writer’s Club Symposium on August 1-2.
