In this week's episode Jodi answers a question from a reader who asks what's the difference between pitching and querying, and also, how are the synopsis and the blurb different.

These are great questions for those perhaps new to writing and publishing and who are just starting out learning about the ins and outs of the author game. 

Also on this week's episode Jodi talks about creative burnout and how as creatives we need to be gentle with ourselves.

Are You A Charlotte?

Are You A Charlotte?

In 1997, actress Kristin Davis’ life was forever changed when she took on the role of Charlotte York in Sex and the City. As we watched Carrie, Samantha, Miranda and Charlotte navigate relationships in NYC, the show helped push once unacceptable conversation topics out of the shadows and altered the narrative around women and sex. We all saw ourselves in them as they searched for fulfillment in life, sex and friendships. Now, Kristin Davis wants to connect with you, the fans, and share untold stories and all the behind the scenes. Together, with Kristin and special guests, what will begin with Sex and the City will evolve into talks about themes that are still so relevant today. "Are you a Charlotte?" is much more than just rewatching this beloved show, it brings the past and the present together as we talk with heart, humor and of course some optimism.
