Buckle up, writers—Stacey’s flying solo this week, and that means no Troy, no filter. In this episode of Pros Talking Prose, Stacey dives into the now-infamous Author Nation Incident, breaks down why some folks in the writing world are acting like A-holes, and asks the big question: Is SHE the A-hole… or just the only one saying the quiet parts out loud?
From awkward run-ins with industry “celebrities,” to the bizarre rule that authors supposedly can’t comment on their own reviews, to the shocking meltdown in a conference class (yes… the Tarot Lady situation), Stacey dishes the real talk every writer needs.
If you’ve ever wondered how to navigate author etiquette, reader spaces, writer drama, or your own creative boundaries, this episode hits all the right nerves—with humor, honesty, and a whole lot of Stacey energy.
Covered Topics:
Whether you’re an indie author, a publishing pro, or someone who needs a petty little laugh today, this episode is for you.
