After four years and over 200 episodes, Confessions is coming to an end! I want to thank all the debut novelists for coming on and being so honest and frank about their experiences and sharing such inspirational wisdom about their writing process. And a massive thank you to all of you lot for listening! Please keep supporting debut authors.

In this episode of Confessions of a Debut Novelist, I’m talking to Autumn Woods about her romance novel Nightshade. In this episode we discuss how to tackle a hate to love dynamic, how she starts with a wish list and builds the story from there, and the incredible story behind how her novel went from being rejected by agents, to a self published number one Amazon bestseller then to a traditionally published deal.
