Many years ago, I decided to start a magazine. I mean, how hard can it be? I jumped in deep and really gave it my all. And I learned so much. All of it was transferable and all of it fed me as a writer and as a businesswoman. Today, come on a journey with me into the past and I’ll share with you the deep lessons I learned from the Alice Magazine and how they can help you too!

Often, we get so hung up on the hero of our story we forget we are creating an entire world. Secondary characters are crucial to this world. In many cases our secondary characters not only people the story, they carry the story. They deserve as much attention as our protagonist so here’s a few ideas on how you might flesh out your cast and add variety, depth and surprises to your story world. PS. I thought I’d written a blog post about secondary characters, but I was wrong. Sorry! I must have been thinking of a module from my Character Intensive e-course. I will run that intensive again soonish, so make sure you’re on my mailing list if you’d like to take part. It’s a cracker of a course and, as the name suggests, it goes deep into character creation. Quickly. No mucking around.

Writing a novel is a messy process. Everyone will tell you that. But how messy? What’s it really like behind-the-scenes with a book that is slowly taking shape? This is a messy episode of the podcast. I flopped down on the couch after a long day of writing and just blurted out what was in my head. Go forth if you dare.

‘Hey buddy. Wanna buy a watch?’ Our inner critic can be feral while we’re in the act of creating. But marketing? OMG. That’s next level ugly. In this episode I talk about marketing for creatives. How marketing triggers our inner critic and makes us feel like a crim in a trench coat. I discuss my own challenges with marketing and how I learned to be at ease with it. The moment you put something out into the public arena you are called upon to market. But it needn’t hurt. Let’s challenge our inner critic and take the sting out of marketing. That way we can speak to our readers, our clients, our collectors and our audience with enthusiasm and confidence.

Pitching Pep Talk Pitching, submitting, throwing your hat in the ring? You are AMAZING! As creatives it’s super important that we keep recognising and acknowledging our courage. KidLitVic is well underway and it’s got me thinking about vulnerability and how much of our identity can be caught up in our creativity and our creative pursuits. Let’s support each other (there are so few of us!) and acknowledge the struggles. Let’s also work to keep our dreams and goals in perspective. Today’s pep talk is live from the studio—with a heater blowing in the background. Eep! As say at girl&duck, progress not perfection!

Being a fictional character is risky business. Or it should be. Are your characters in enough danger, under enough pressure or stress, threatened in some way? This can be tricky for children’s authors. The impulse is to protect our characters, keep them safe and, gawd forbid, sensible… But that’s the death knell to drama and storytelling. Happily ever after needs to be earned, otherwise the tale is kinda ho-hum. Let’s talk about upping the tension in your stories as well as knowing when to pull back. Includes examples (and dilemmas) from my own books.

Today I’m chatting about creativity boundaries. At some point it helps to rein in your interests and focus. Drill down, as Elizabeth Gilbert would say. This year, 2024, is my Year of Acrylics. First boundary done and dusted, thank you very much. Next boundary. I’ve taken it even further and, as we speak, I am painting 100 coffee cups. Yes, indeedy. This goal, this boundary, has already added a lot of energy to my daily output and is paying off if surprising ways. I’ve even learned to work with purple! Boundaries will help with your writing too, of course. So long as you don’t impose them too early. Let’s talk about that. And more. This is a long ep, twenty-five minutes. Woah!

As we head into the big adventure that is 2024, it can be helpful to select a word of the year to inspire, energise or even challenge you. Your word companion can act as your muse. Your word might inspire art and journal prompts or encourage you to make longed for changes. It might even challenge you to find your courage or to live and create more passionately. One of our lovely Duck Pond members chose ‘effortless’ as her word for 2024. This word inspired me to riff on the whole idea of ‘effortless being’ and to wander into more esoteric terrain for this episode. As I always say, words are magnetic. They draw to themselves all kinds of magic!

Final thoughts for 2023, dear listener. I’ll be back in 24, for sure. (I like that rhyme!) Three things that might be of interest to you in this ep (another ep inspired by a lovely Duck Pond member). My favourite book on spirituality and why. My favourite book on creativity and why. The oracle decks I use in my Full Moon readings in the Duck Pond. By today’s standards, when the market is flooded with all sorts of spiritual and creativity treasures, the books I discuss in this ep might seem like 101s. But that’s why they’re so important to me — and I suspect it’s why they are classics, too. They are foundational. Also in this closing ep, why I decided to form an IRL writers’ group in 2024, and the difference between a critique group and a writers’ group. (Big relief sigh here, as I didn’t realise there was a difference until a duckie set me straight!)

Let me tell you a little story about the time I got a substantial Australia Council grant (so exciting!) but didn’t write the book (so frustrating!) and how that felt and how that evolved and how I finally, years later, have figured out how to write said book. Ramblings about patience, perseverance and passion, today, dear author. ► About Jen & Girl and Duck: If you'd like to subscribe to my museletters, yay! ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Click here⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ .

You’d be surprised how many developing (and established) authors trip when it comes to tense. But never fear. Gaining confidence in your ‘weaker’ areas just takes practice and self-awareness. The art of tweaking, rewriting and self-editing can be learned and honed over time. Hang in there, dear author, keep doing the verk, keep asking questions and always be gentle with yourself. There are MANY moving parts when it comes to creative writing! ► About Jen & Girl and Duck: If you'd like to subscribe to my museletters, yay! ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Click here⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ .

Every now and then I receive a letter that’s frank and raw but oh so common. What happens when you feel fed up with striving? When the dream to become a published/successful author has taken its toll on you and your family? If you’re questioning your choices, wondering if it’s all worth it, our 50th episode might be the balm you need. This is not a rah-rah, you’ve got this, just-do-it, Nike commercial. It’s deeper than that. This ep is all about looking at the bigger picture, perhaps finding spiritual sustenance, to help you stay balanced (mostly!), centred and compassionate. I hope you find it helpful. And thank you to our ‘anonymous’ letter writer. You spoke for countless creatives with your complex ponderings! ► About Jen & Girl and Duck: If you'd like to subscribe to my museletters, yay! ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Click here⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ .
