Ch. 33 | The Woman Before Wallis Author Bryn Turnbull on Her Bestselling Debut

 
Bryn Turnbull Author of The Woman Before Wallis

Show Notes

On today’s chapter of the Word Weaver Podcast I speak with my dear friend Bryn Turnbull in the midst of launching her debut historical fiction novel, The Woman Before Wallis.

If you’ve ever dreamed of writing and traditionally publishing a book (with a big 5 publisher to boot), Bryn gives us a real-time glimpse into the emotions and behind-the-scenes happenings of not only what it takes to write a book, but what it’s like to market and launch that book into the world!

RIGHT before we recorded the podcast she found out that in her first week she was a #1 National Bestseller…by the time you’re listening to this episode, she’s still running strong at six weeks and counting as a Toronto Star and Chapters Indigo Bestseller.

Bryn’s journey to becoming a bestselling debut author will inspire and motivate every word weaver out there to KEEP GOING until you actualize your dream of writing a book.

Make sure to check out Bryn’s WORD WEAVER IN RESIDENCE Author Q&A and buy a copy of The Woman Before Wallis, if you haven’t already, wherever books are sold.
