In this episode, TB & Clare talk about writing their latest books and how the process never gets any easier. TB is waiting for the book to click but is plowing on; meanwhile, Clare has trashed her first 10,000 words and is starting again. It’s all part of the process!

They also chat about their ailments (shoulder, hip) and recommend cod liver oil for its lubricating qualities—almost with a straight face. Clare’s been obsessed with the reality show Married At First Sight and wants to write a lesbian romance version.

They both share how they launched their first book, how nerve-racking pressing the publish button is, and how it’s incredible when people you don’t know start to buy your books. A life-changing moment. Neither really knew what they were doing, but their first effort was encouraging enough to try it again, and the rest is herstory.

Stop back next week when we’ll be discussing how we’d launch our first book now, with over a decade of publishing experience behind us.  If you’d like to leave a comment on the episode, head on over to www.lesbianswhowrite.com. We’d love to hear from you!
