Description

Who doesn’t enjoy a good love story?

Gina Colgrove, an at-home mom of two girls, former healthcare worker, and author of Until There Was You, is on the show today.

In this episode, we discuss the history and legitimacy of serial romance novel apps and the ways in which these platforms help writers. Gina also shares what she’s learned by looking back at her first book, what her writing habits and daily goals look like, and what experiences she had with self-publishing and what portion of that surprised her.

We also talk about the ways in which our writing has inspired our kids and laughed about our 80s and 90s boy band obsessions.
