Handling Professional Jealousy with Bestselling Author Margarita Montimore

My guest today on CREATIVE. INSPIRED. HAPPY is Margarita Montimore, bestselling author of Oona Out of Order, which was a Good Morning America book club pick. Her latest novel, The Dollhouse Academy, is out now!

Today, we talk about:

* pep talks for yourself to get through the ups and downs of publishing

* how many rejections she weathered before landing a book deal

* dealing with professional jealousy of other writers (especially if they are friends!)

* writing tricky narrative structures (like multiple POVs or timelines)

* and so much more.

I hope you enjoy the show!
