Southern California is bursting with creative energy — and for many, there’s a book inside just waiting to be written. But getting it published can be a huge challenge. Redlands author Tracy Wise experienced this as she worked to find a publisher for her debut novella, Madame Sorel’s Lodger. In this episode of SoCal Voices, Wise describes her journey from writing the book to finding her publishing home at Type 18 Books. If you've ever felt that urge to tell your story — that book burning inside you — don’t miss this conversation. Tracy’s story might just be the spark that gets you from dream to published reality.
