Not Every Door Is Your Door: Anna J. on Rainy Days, Real Healing, and Not Giving Them Everything
Our summer break is over! Season 3 begins with author Anna J., and it turns into much more than a book conversation.
Anna joins LaCie, Sloane, and Morgan to talk about "Rainy Days", the romance she wrote after her divorce, and what it takes to find love, faith, and yourself again on the other side of a seventeen year marriage. She talks about healing without pretending you'll never be triggered again, learning to keep her own cup full before giving anyone the overflow, and why she wrote a man who is allowed to be vulnerable.
We also get into her twenty plus years in publishing. Anna left traditional publishing to build her own imprint, and she's direct about why. What an advance really is. What a publisher will cut and who they're cutting it for. What she'd never accept again. Her advice for writers comes down to going hybrid and never giving one house everything you have.
Plus music, faith, dating with intention, soul ties, what's next in the City Love Stories world, and why Anna J. refuses to claim writer's block.
Funny, honest, and exactly the conversation we wanted to open Season 3 with.
