Description

After an early near-miss, Courtney’s debut novel came out 10 years later, with a different publisher, editor, agent, and title. (Not to mention, completely re-written!) And her publishing journey didn’t end there! She’s now published with both Big Five and indie publishers, and in a variety of genres: novels, a memoir, and her popular nonfiction how-to book, Before and After the Book Deal.
