This week, Writes4Women host Pamela Cook celebrates the release of her eighth women’s fiction novel, Because You’re Mine, and shares her reflections on both what she'd do differently if she had her time over, and the choices she's glad she made when it came to her writing career.
Pamela shares what she has learned in 12 years of publishing and 26 years of writing, outlining five things she would do differently, including handle rejection better, and write more instead of procrastinating, and she also highlights positives like joining writing groups and starting the podcast.
Join Pam as she spills the tea on her writing career, with lessons she hopes listeners can learn from
