Recently I caught up with podcaster, blogger, and author Amy Isaman.Amy taught creative writing for years until she finally answered her calling and wrote her first book in her 40's.  She's written both mystery books and historical fiction, and she believes that writers should try writing in different genres. After all, readers don't confine themselves to one genre.She puts a case forward for writers to flex their creative muscles and pick a genre they've not written in before, whether that's a thriller, mysteries, or science fiction.In this episode, we discuss:Turning your first book into a seriesOutlining your writing in advance Amy explains her editing processUsing beta readersStarting a blogResources: Amy IsamanAmy Isaman at AmazonAmy Isaman on InstagramSara Oliver DesignSupport the show (https://www.patreon.com/becomeawritertoday)
