On this episode, I sit down for an engaging discussion with bestselling author Gillian Harvey. She has written 13 books, many related to her experiences living abroad in rural France. She is also a writer for several newspapers and magazines including; The Times, Telegraph, Guardian, Women’s Weekly, and People’s Friend. 

Our conversation is an interesting deep dive into her journey as an author and the significant challenges that tested her along the way.  We cover; the process she uses to write her bestselling novels, where her passion for writing developed, dealing with rejection and fear of failure in the publishing industry, finding something you’re so passionate about that no one could keep you from doing it, learning to be the voice of hope for someone just starting their journey, the importance of constantly developing your craft, becoming adaptable, learning to love change in life, and so much more!
