From a non author, but a reader vantage, writing a book seems overwhelming. I’m impressed you have written eight so far. And you are getting better on each one. The last one was a really a leap from your previous books
Thanks Alan, I feel like I hit my stride with that last book. I am not sure this new one is going to grab you out of the gate like the last one, but I hope it's just as entertaining. Fingers crossed!
(PS I've written 10 books but 2 of them were collections of short stories - no complex plot needed, lol!)
I still struggle with the whole Wants/Needs thing - for some reason "I really, really, really want to be a successful artist" didn't seem to cut it with my first novel (at least not according to 60 agents), and I'll be damned if I can articulate what Lamb wants, other than to be loved. ;)

I think you just articulated it perfectly! Needs/wants don't need to be all that complex, just relatable. You've nailed it.
Oh! Look at me, writing! 🤣💜
anyone can do it! lol
