#379 – Filling Your Creative Well with Amanda Lewis

In this episode, we are joined by Canadian editor and writer Amanda Lewis, whose non-fiction book Tracking Giants chronicles her journey trying to visit every “champion” tree in her home province of British Columbia. Tracking Giants soon turns into an exploration of creativity on the way, and the book includes reflections on being a writer and a creative overall. Amanda’s perspectives on writing and editing as both an author and editor are invaluable, and we were so excited to host her on the show.

We spoke to Amanda about her career as an editor, how indie authors can build successful relationships with their editors, heard some advice on editing specifically for self-published authors, learn more about the process behind writing Tracking Giants, how to tackle constructive criticism as an author, and more!
