  • Sunday Interview: Sophie-Leigh Robbins
    2023/10/29

    Welcome to the Sunday edition of the Indie Author Method, where we change things up a bit. On Sundays, when you have a little more time, when you have the space in your day to spend some time with your craft of writing, we sit down with another successful author to discuss their writing, newest work and the things they can share with you about their process. 

    This week, Andrew talks with another USA Today Bestselling Author, Sophie-Leigh Robbins. Like last week's guest Gigi Blume, Sophie-Leigh's latest work Alienhated is part of a six-author project called Monster Mash, where these six authors have taken classic monsters and written sweet rom-coms around it.

Inspired by the wisdom of monks, and rooted in psychology, we design practical tools for peaceful being and purposeful doing.
