This week on Blondie and the Brit we head back in time to revisit our premier podcast interview with successful author Darynda Jones. We were fortunate to land our very first interview with Darynda who is a USA Today and New YorkTimes best-selling author. She shared her journey of how she was first discovered and also talks about her writing process. Darynda entertained us with a behind the scenes view of her characters in the Charlie Davidson Series. Regularly a traditionally published author, she also talks to about stepping out into the world of Indie publishing for the first time.
