À propos de cet audio
Aileen is a bit of a rockstar in my eyes. She went indie back in 2012—before it was cool—and never looked back. In this episode, we talk about why she chose the indie route over traditional publishing, why she’s sticking with it, and how her research and backlist-building helped her create a sustainable full-time author career (AKA the dream for most indies!).
I was a huge fan before I ever hit “record,” so you can imagine how thrilled I was when she said yes to being on the show! We bond over our love of Buffy the Vampire Slayer and Angel, and Aileen shares how a misunderstanding during her MFA led to the creation of her popular Alpha Girl series.
We also dig into the real side of author life—setting boundaries (especially when people don’t treat writing like a “real job”), balancing full-time work with being a mom, and the wild ride of producing audiobooks. Plus, Aileen discusses her inspiration for her Days of Iron and Clay series-a gritty, magical series she describes as “a female John Constantine”—inspired by her dual heritage.
