Inspired Writer Collective Podcast
Welcome to The Inspired Writer Collective, your memoir-focused writing podcast. If you've ever felt the pull to write your truth, to shape the chaos of real life into something meaningful, and to share your journey with the world, you're in the right place. We’re your hosts Elizabeth Wilson & Stephanie Oswald, Ph.D., writers, coaches & entrepreneurs who believe in you and know how important it is to find a writing community to guide you on your path to self-publishing.
We believe your voice holds power. Telling your story isn't just a personal act of healing or reflection, it's a gift to the world. Pulling the skeletons out of the closet is challenging - unless you’re writing a memoir. Then it’s called “chapter one”.
Each week, we explore the art, heart, and craft of connecting personal narrative to your writing, memoir or fiction. Whether you're drafting your first chapter, wrestling with the messy middle, or searching for the courage to hit “publish,” we are honored to be your companions on the journey.
The world needs your voice. Memoir is the art of pulling out old skeletons and realizing they were just unspoken chapters of your story.

BTS with an Indie Author - 3 weeks til Launch
Use Left/Right to seek, Home/End to jump to start or end. Hold shift to jump forward or backward.
Welcome to this special summer series where I invite guest hosts who were pivotal to the writing or publishing of my upcoming memoir to come on the podcast and interview me about the behind the scenes of an indie author leading up to my debut launch.
This week is hosted by Hannah Gordon, my author coach and owner of Gordon Publishing. We chat about looking at the release of a book in terms of the broader author/indie press business and setting goals for sales. Too often we as writers focus on Release Day as the end of the journey when really it's the beginning.
Listen in to my reflections on unboxing Lonely Girl: An Unexpected Love Story and holding my book in my hands for the first time. I talk candidly about the challenges of creating the right marketing copy in the void of reader feedback during the pre-launch stage.
If you would like to purchase a copy of Lonely Girl and support me as an indie author, please visit my website, whisperedwisdompress.com, to preorder a signed author paperback copy. Orders will begin shipping on launch day, June 22nd. If you prefer an ebook format or live outside of the US, you can preorder the ebook on Amazon now or order the paperback on Amazon beginning June 22nd!
And don't forget to tune in again the next three weeks in the lead up to launch day and reflections on my in-person launch event!
