This week’s episode, Corks and Conversation with Taylor Stevens, was one of our most inspiring yet! Taylor had to overcome so much after being raised in an apocalyptic cult where her education stopped at the age of twelve. Listen to hear her story and advice about reaching goals.
Here are some highlights of what Taylor shared with us over a glass of Dark Horse Big Red Blend...
On research: “Research for me, has always been a case of finding a way to write about a subject so that the experts who really really know the subject aren’t going to laugh their butts off over it”
On motivation: “… I don’t want to go to my grave with regrets. I have the time right now to do this- I’m going to write a book.”
On finding an agent: “My goal was to get a hundred rejections, so even if I failed, I succeeded”
If after listening you want more of Taylor Stevens, you can find lots of information and writing advice on her website, and on her podcast, The Taylor Stevens Show.
Also, go out and get one of her books, including her new release, Liars’ Legacy, which we featured on last week’s episode of Game of Books!
