Write About Now

From Carpet Salesman to Thriller Author


Listen Later

Andrew Bridgeman has sold everything from carpets to insurance, but like so many of us, his lifelong dream was to publish a novel. And now he's done it. At the age of 59, he just released his debut, Fortunate Son, a political thriller with memorable characters and plot twists that will keep you reading through the night. On the pod, Andrew talks to me about the challenges of learning to write at a later age, the importance of persistence, and the unexpected twists in his publishing journey. Andrew also offers insights into his unique approach to character development and plot construction. This convo is a must-listen for aspiring writers and book lovers alike.
