Podcast: The Creative Shift with Dan Blank
Episode: "I had to figure out how to make writing the central part of my life." My Interview with Author Donna Hemans
Description: Donna Hemans' first two books were published nearly 20 years apart, and in our interview, she describes the difference in launching each. She also shares the journey between them, where she began two manuscripts that are still unpublished, only to find that her next idea was the one ready to be finished and shared with the world. We also discuss her getting her MFA, balancing a day job and writing, and why she now owns a co-working studio for writers. Her latest novel is Tea By the Sea.
