  • 340: Alexandria Faulkenbury - Author of Somewhere Past the End
    2026/10/29
    Our podcast guest this week is Alexandria Faulkenbury (Somewhere Past The End, Apprentice House Press at Loyola University, Baltimore, May 2025). Alexandria explains what it's like to work with a university-based teaching press where professors supervise college students studying aspects of publishing while working on your book, including in editing, graphic design, and marketing. We then discuss how she used her selection for The Debutante Ball cohort to not only share the emotional ups and downs of launching a debut with seven other newbies, but also marketing ideas and even an introduction that led her to an agent. Finally Alexandria shares how to plan a successful book tour.

    Alexandria Faulkenbury is the author of Somewhere Past the End, a 2025 Foreword Indies Book of the Year Gold Medal Winner. She holds an M.A. in multicultural and transnational literature from East Carolina University and teaches English at Midlands Technical College. Her writing has been featured in MER Literary and The Maine Review, among others. When she's not writing, you can find her reading, tap dancing, knitting, or grading papers. Originally from Texas, she now lives in South Carolina with her husband, two rambunctious kids, and one ornery dog.

    2026/10/22
    This week we welcome Julie Wise, a Canadian author (Make No Mistake: The Novel, indie published, May 2025) to discuss her debut featuring older women activists which one reader called "The Handmaid's Tale with a Molotov cocktail twist." We discuss what it's like when you novel's plot becomes reality and then we do a deep-dive into how Julie used the social media app Substack to first release her book in serial form, and later used its podcast function to produce her audio book. If you've ever wondered whether Substack is worth it, give this one a listen.

    Julie Wise (she/her) is a writer from the Okanagan Valley, British Columbia. Her poetry and prose have appeared in multiple publications as well as four anthologies. She is the author of Dream Bigger: Reclaiming A Life of Joy and Ease (2010), Make No Mistake: The Novel (2025) and writes Glimmers From The Edge on Substack.

  • 338: Joan Fernandez - Author of Saving Vincent - A Novel of Jo van Gogh
    2026/10/15
    This week our guest is Joan Fernandez (Saving Vincent: A Novel of Jo van Gogh, She Writes Press, April 2025). We talk about what happened when a competing book about Jo from the prestigious Van Gogh museum in Amsterdam came out right when Joan was ready to query, how her read 900 letters from Vincent for research, and how she's still marketing her novel 18 months after launch. And listen for our interesting talk about how Jo used modern marketing techniques like FOMO, 2 for one, and hometown advantage to get Vincent's artwork into the world.

    Joan Fernandez is a historical novelist and public speaker recovering the stories of women written out of the historical record. She is author of Saving Vincent: A Novel of Jo van Gogh, whose twelve book awards and honors include First Place for the Missouri Writers Guild's Walter Williams Major Work Award and is rated 4.7 stars in Amazon reviews. She is a former Principal and general partner at Edward Jones, where she spent twenty-two years in marketing and communications centered on translating specialist research for general audiences — the same work, in a different subject, that shapes her presentations today.
