“Instagram vs Reality” In the Life of an Author

Before I became an author, I used to fantasize about sitting in a coffee shop, light streaming in through the window, fingers posed effortlessly at the keys, struck with inspiration, writing chapter after chapter.

Now that I’m an author, I’ve discovered a whole different (and better and more miraculous and at times vaguely horrifying) reality. In today’s episode, I share more.
