Alchemy for Authors Writing Lessons From A Centenarian with Babette Hughes
Welcome back to Alchemy for Authors!
In this week’s episode I interview author and centenarian, Babette Hughes, about writing later in life, and her new book, Lessons in Evil.
We also discuss:
· Why Babette waited until her eighties to become a published author.
· Why we should rewrite the narrative around aging.
· How Babette came to write Lessons in Evil.
· Why it’s so important to tap into your emotions and unconscious when writing.
· How a traumatic childhood influenced Babette’s stories.
· The role gratitude can plan in your writing career and in banishing imposter syndrome.
· Why “lucky” people aren’t all that lucky!
If you’ve ever used the excuse that you’re too old to go after your dreams, or have wondered what’s the secret to living a happy life, then this is the episode for you!
