Description

Episode 10 is a good one! In this episode, we have our first international guest: Amanda Gambill! If you’ve listened to TGSP before, you’ve heard Laura and Kate talk incessantly about the book, ‘Honestly I’m Totally Faking it’ and Pres St. Clair, both Amanda creations.


Ever wondered how to create a multi-dimensional character that readers will love or hate? In this episode, we discuss character development (something Amanda is brilliant at) and her writing process, too. We delve into social media and Bookstagram, and how to set boundaries while also maintaining a loyal fan base through genuine interactions.


We love this episode, and we hope you do too!


In-depth conversation, book recs, helpful advice, and our signature grumpy/sunshine segment—check this episode out today
