Jo’Ana, does writing energize you or exhaust you?

Writing energizes and often redirects me because it reminds me that I have creative power over every area of my life.

​

How long did you work on your book? 

I worked on No Aliens Before Breakfast for 2 years, 8 months, 14 days and 15 minutes. After only knowing the title and overall premise of the book for more than 2 years, when the timing was perfect, I sat down and wrote the entire story in 15 minutes—no editing necessary.

​

Once you completed your book, what was the publishing process like?

The completion of the book and publishing process went hand-in-hand as I launched my publishing company, Legacy Writer’s Press, the same day I wrote No Aliens Before Breakfast. Needless to say, I love my publisher. She has a powerful gift to help other people re-imagine what’s possible.

 

What tactics do you use to write, outline first or just write? 

Wherever I am, I try to jot down book ideas when they come to me. Therefore, when I’m finally ready to sit down to flesh out more of a story, I usually have a ew ideas already.

 

Any lasting thoughts for your readers?

A legacy isn’t just what you leave for people, it’s what you leave in people.
