There is a backstory weaved into each book project. To explore the creative process, I connect with authors, writers, editors, publishers, and an array of creative souls to have a conversation centered on how they developed their stories to completing their works of art. Each episode is an opportunity for us to explore mindsets, pearls of wisdom, and the experiences that began our journey as an author from the moment we put pen to paper.
You’ll hear from New York Times best selling authors, writers, editors, folks who know marketing, publishers and those who love the craft of writing. Every episode is an opportunity to learn actionable insights to inspire you to live your dreams.
Podcast guests visit the virtual Pen to Paper Press studio to chat about all things centered around writing, editing, publishing, and marketing. We explore insights ranging from overcoming writer’s block to self-editing to getting books into the hands of readers. Pour a mug of tea and listen to conversations focused on the art of writing.

I really loved this podcast and am looking forward to reading the book. I do have a fascination with the mystic even if I don’t know if I am a believer and could much identify with Kris about the journey. The writing, though difficult, is an act of love. The marketing is so difficult for the creative soul. I so appreciate you having this platform for new writers to share different aspects of their journey!
“What a great interview. I personally gained some confidence about marketing after listening to her experiences.“

“Just caught up with Episode 52, the wonderful Bill Lee-Emery. He was so interesting, changing the path forward by opening up a dialogue with his own inner critic. It’s taken me years to be in a space that could have been so easily accessible a long time ago, had I known about the messages he has delivered here. I intend listening again to take it all in and improve my relationship with my inner critic.“
