This is a 18-minute discussion with Charlotte Otter, a wonderful writer you can visit at Charlotte’s Web.
Here are the questions we discussed:
- What would be your dream writing gig?
- Are you going after that?
- Do you have a plan to make that happen?
- You’re a mom of 3 and wife of a busy husband – how do you do it?
- Is blogging helpful to writers or should they stick to their “serious†writing?
- What do you need as a creative person from your spouse to help you go after your dreams?
- What discourages you the most?
- You’ve done corporate, done journalism – how have you handled the adjustment to staying home with the kids? Discuss that decision and any struggles.
Charlotte also shared some tips and a short story:
- Recommended Books by Julia Cameron, The Artist’s Way, and The Right to Write.
