Simon van Booy | Approaching the End

Simon Van Booy has been, since late 2018, my editor and mentor for this novel. I first met him when he appeared on the podcast and I knew he understood the sort of book I wanted to write. In this episode, we talk about the challenges faced and the mindset necessary to keep going and reach the end of your book.

My work with Simon has been instrumental in writing a better book, staying focused on completing and learning that revision really is a fun and empowering part of writing a book. In this episode, Simon and I discuss the process of revision, as well as how we have worked together on my book. It was so much fun to get his take on the book and to be able to share more of the inside scoop on my revision with you. Happy listening and happy revising!
