On this episode of On Publishing, we talk with Courtney Maum, author of three successful novels, I Am Having So Much Fun Here Without You, Touch, and Costalegre, as well as her new book, Before and After the Book Deal (Catapault). She tells us the story behind writing and publishing her first novel, which ultimately took more than ten years and multiple literary agents. Courtney also shares about her writing process, how she has learned to “write at the speed of fun,” editing her work and working with editors, marketing her books, and what she’s working on next.
