[Daisy Alpert Florin, inner stuff]: “Cloaking yourself” in fiction + getting over the idea that you don’t have the right pedigree Finding the Throughline with Kate Hanley

In today’s portion of my interview with Daisy Alpert Florin, author of My Last Innocent Year, we talk about the mindset side of creating. (Honestly, these are always my favorite episodes!)
We covered:
How you can “cloak” your story by writing fiction–incorporating the feelings of things you’ve experienced if not the exact experiences themselves
Worrying that people are sick of hearing you talk
Getting over the voice that says “you don’t have the proper training to write a novel”
What’s on the inspirational Post-It note that Daisy keeps above her monitor
How it’s never too to be a debut author
Daisy’s “buoyancy” about the future now that her kids are teens and hard work of early parenting is behind her
The collective disillusions Daisy would like to evaporate
