The life and work of author Bella Falls
Join Dan Wood as he talks with friend and author Bella Falls about her path to being a successful author. At an early age, Bella Falls was told the family was related to Edgar Allen Poe, and she thought she might become an author some day, too. After teaching English in both high school and college, she dove into the self-publishing scene first as an editor and eventually branched out into writing her own stories. She's channeled her love of fantasy and the challenge of writing mysteries into her paranormal cozy mystery series set in the South, where she's now returned after years of moving all over the world as a Navy wife.Find more from Bella Falls at https://www.bellafallsbooks.com///Draft2Digital is where you start your Indie Author Career//Looking for your path to self-publishing success?
