"I tend to deal with writer's block by thinking, 'What can I simplify in my life?' Because that will get me more in tune with my intuition and the writing will come." -Dana Laquidara (speaker and author)

Today I talk with Dana Laquidara. She is a speaker and writer who recently had her second book published. Her first book explored the connection between creativity, simplifying, and healing in the book The Uncluttered Mother: Free Up Your Space, Mind, and Heart.

Today, we dig into her second book, YOU-KNOW-WHO An Alienated Daughter's Memoir. We get into her thoughts about the healing that occurs while writing and how she has navigated the process of writing about trauma that affects not only an individual but a family.

You can find her book ⁠⁠here ⁠⁠and ⁠⁠here ⁠⁠and on her website ⁠⁠here⁠⁠.

She mentioned a few books that she found inspiring. They were...

The Book Bible: How to Sell Your Manuscript―No Matter What Genre―Without Going Broke or Insane by Susan Shapiro

Be the Gateway: A Practical Guide to Sharing Your Creative Work and Engaging an Audience by Dan Blank
