    In this episode of Book Talk, I get to introduce you to my friend Dan Walsh, a writer who has been compared to Nicholas Sparks. He has published traditionally and as an indie, with great success in both. We talked about why he's made the publishing choices he has as well as the journey two of his books have had on the path to possibly becoming books. It was a fascinating conversation as we explored branding and more. I can't wait to hear what you think.

    There are some authors that I aspire to write like, and Susan Meissner is one of them. I am delighted to introduce you to her in this episode of Book Talk. Her latest novel A Map to Paradise, was featured in PEOPLE magazine. Woot! There is a gentleness to Susan that I so appreciate, and this episode grew out of reconnecting with her at a published author retreat in February. I know you'll enjoy learning about her path to published author, how A Map to Paradise is woven together, and how it evolved in the writing and editing. There's so much to learn from her. I hope you enjoy the conversation as much as I did.

    Becca Kinzer is the award-winning author of romantic comedies like Dear Henry, Love Edith. I LOVED First Love, Second Draft, a book of second-chance love and forced proximity, so it was such fun to talk about it with Becca. I think we could also bond over our fondness of Jimmy Stewart, but we didn't dive down that rabbit hole in today's conversation. What we did talk about is the way love and second-chance love give us a chance to dig deeper and explore God's heart and character. We talked about her journey in writing and how she writes. And we just had a fun conversation. I hope you enjoy it as much as I did!
