In this episode, I enjoyed catching up with author Jewel E Annl, discussing her busy life as a mother, teacher, and writer. We talked about her process of revisiting old manuscripts and turning them into new releases, as well as the challenges of transforming novellas into full-length novels. Jewel also shared her approach to writing across genres, explaining that she writes based on her mood and what she's interested in at the moment, allowing her to create authentic stories and cater to different audiences with varying tastes. Jewel’s latest release is If This is Love which is a forbidden, heartwrenching romance. We also explored the world of romance novels, discussing favorites from authors like Aly Martinez, Kate Stewart, and Jennifer Hartman, as well as works from Jody Picoult and Lisa Jewell. The conversation touched on the idea of mood writing and reading and how to approach controversial topics within novels without alienating readers. Don't miss this episode, where you'll not only get a glimpse into an author's life but also discover some great book recommendations and insights into the world of romance and women's fiction!
