Ep 7: How I Wrote and Published Six Cozy Mysteries Before Becoming a Mom


Listen Later

What could you create in two years with a little consistency—and a lot of heart?

In this episode, I’m sharing how I wrote and published six cozy mystery novels before becoming a mom. I talk about starting my first book as a creative escape during the early days of the pandemic, how I let go of perfection, and the mindset shift that made me believe, “Why not me?”

You’ll hear:

  • Why writing for joy was the spark I needed to finally begin

  • How self-publishing helped me take my dream seriously

  • What I learned about consistency, confidence, and commitment before motherhood

If you're ready to stop waiting for the “perfect time” to write your novel, I’d love to support you. Book a free consultation call and we’ll make a plan to help you finish your book—on your terms, with real accountability. https://calendly.com/joseesmith/book
