Like to many guests on this podcast, Alexandra found that "corporate America" was not for her. She had a passion for writing from childhood when her mom would read to her.
A bout with shingles at the young age of 29 lead Alexandra to realize the stress her corporate job was causing and found herself jumping into real estate as an independent contractor while continuing to write a novel that had been in her mind for years.
She shares her path to publishing her own book and then re-working the title/coverart to re-publish. She's now working on her second novel and has really focused on the practice of sitting down at the same time each day to write at least 2000 words!
