In this episode we hang out with indie author H.M. Hodgson, a mum, reader-first writer and all‑around lover of witchy romance, action and properly spicy scenes. Grab a cuppa, get comfy and join us as we dig into her creative process.
We talk about balancing steamy emotional beats with high-octane action, the surprisingly weird research rabbit holes (think arcane artefacts, Celtic roots and some unexpectedly eyebrow-raising Google searches), and the highs and lows of indie publishing. From reader love to learning the hard lessons on covers, launches and spreadsheets.
Plus a sneak peek at Witch Wars: think National Treasure meets witchy paranormal romance, full of puzzles, forbidden love and coven politics. It’s warm, witty and a bit mischievous, exactly what you want in a cozy listen. Enjoy!
