In this episode, we spoke with Cali Mann, author of dozens of contemporary romance, fantasy, and paranormal romance novels under multiple pen names! Cali is the author of the Wickem Academy series, a new paranormal romance series exclusively available from Kobo Originals. Wickem Academy follows a young woman named Marigold, who “is ripped from her quiet life of anonymity and thrust into the ruthless halls of Wickem Academy,” where she uncovers her family history… a history consisting of magic, secrets, and necromancy! The first book in the series, Heir of Shadows, is available now.

We talked to Cali about her writing career, her journey to indie published, her inspiration for Wickem Academy, her love of the reverse harem and why choose tropes, how she crafts her characters, plots, and worlds, and much more!
