Description

We're starting Season 5! Today I talk about knowing your genre, why it's important, and what to do if you haven't figured it out. Then, I chat with author Henry Corrigan about:

• What the American Dream is and how it’s been skewed by society
• How his nightmares inspired his novel, A Man in Pieces
• His publication experience with Dark Stroke Books
• How hybrid publishing works
• Having a book that sits in different genres
• How to juggle drafting in different genres/categories
• Meeting genre expectations, trope expectations, etc.
• How writing has helped him with his mental health
• His advice on the process of writing through mental health issues
• Accepting the idea that failure is inevitable, but never let it stop you from trying again the next day
