Between the Edits: Interview with Alexandra Wendt

In this episode, I interviewed independent author Alexandra Wendt. We discussed her journey as an author for her debut novel (including a few twists along the way), why her debut novel was, in fact, her debut novel, and the importance that coming to a deep understanding of her faith played in the entire process! Toward the end, Alexandra shares her best piece of advice for choosing joy even when it’s hard to find.

For a reasonable price, authors can generate a customizable website using the ISBN of a published book — or even just their name! Already have a website? Tertulia helps you transfer your domain and/or current website with ease. This tool is reasonably priced at just $7.99/mo when billed annually and offers a free domain name for your first year. After that, it’s $15.99/mo more. I have personally met with the people of Tertulia and know they truly prioritize supporting authors and providing excellent customer service. One Line a Day: A One Year Daily Journal: https://www.etsy.com/listing/1527037582/one-line-a-day-one-year-daily-journal I love journaling, but I am potentially the worst at doing it daily. Some nights I am tired, I don’t have the time, or I don’t feel like I have enough worthwhile substance to my day to write about. So I tried my hand at creating a One Line a Day journal to help me maintain the incredible habit with just one line a day. This is a one-year journal that can be started at any time. Tally the days you journal for each month, then total them up at the end of the year! Reflect on your months, compile lessons learned from your year, and look forward to the next by setting new goals. With plenty of additional notes pages both within each month and at the end of the journal, there’s plenty of room to write more than one line for those days when the words flow easily! This journal can double as a gratitude journal, planner, dream journal, and more! Customizable Book Embosser: https://www.chiccraft.shop?afflr_id=BETWEEN Last year for my birthday, a close friend gifted me this custom book embosser. Why? Because she knows about what I call my Legacy Bookshelf. Over the years, due to space and weight limitations, I’ve had to be very judicious about what books I can keep. Therefore, I had to start thinking deeply about every book I read to determine if they meant enough to me to keep. That is when I developed my Legacy Bookshelf, which is a special shelf in my bookcase devoted to only those books that I love so much that I plan to pass them on to my children one day. Knowing this, my friend bought me a custom book embosser to stamp the title pages of each legacy book, creating a one-of-a-kind collection that my family will cherish for decades.
