Check out the writing themed podcast this week where author Marsha Casper Cook welcomes author Jennifer Hilt and myself on to talk about everything from how to write blurbs, using tropes in stories, how watching movies can fill your creative well, plotting, and dealing with the "soggy" middles of stories. 

Jennifer is the author of, The Trope Thesaurus, so you'll want to check out everything she has to say about using tropes.

She's also a USA Today Bestselling author who has worked as a plotter and concept creator. She’s written 24 books across four pen names and she has a degree in linguistics and literature. She lives in Seattle with her family and her canine fan club. She also loves collecting dictionaries in unfamiliar languages, bingeing Scandi-Noir streaming series, and shouting out tropes from the comfort of her couch.

​Marsha Casper Cook had myself and author Elizabeth Black on her podcast for a great discussion about how we've all coped during the last two years. We discussed what we turned to and what got us through an unprecedented time in our history. We discuss working from home and our new ways of socializing online and otherwise. I talk about group texts, Zoom art nights with friends, and my journaling practice.

We talked about getting help if dealing with anxiety or depression and grief support groups. We also chat about moving forward in this new normal with compassion for what everyone has been dealing with over the last two year.
