Welcome to the Creative Pen podcast. I'm Joanna Penn, thriller author and creative entrepreneur,

bringing you interviews, inspiration and information on writing, publishing options and marketing ideas for your book.

You can find the episode show notes, your free author blueprint and lots more information at thecreativepen.com.

And that's Penn with a double N. And here's the show.

Hello, creatives. I'm Joanna Penn. And this is episode number 716 of the podcast, and I'm recording this early as I will only just be back from walking in Norway as this goes out on the 2nd of October 2023.

Although, as I recall this, I haven't left yet. You can see pictures on Instagram and Facebook at JF Pen author. Penn author if you'd like to get a glimpse of

what is probably a rainy, beautiful Norwegian fjords. So in today's show, I'm talking to

Jesse Quack. Now, Jesse's been on the show before talking about from big idea to book

and from chaos to creativity. But in this episode,

Jesse talks about adapting to life as a freelance writer and author after being injured,

and she can tell you about that in the interview, and her tips for managing work and her energy

and the emotional side of things. Because as much as we try to plan for life,

sometimes life just happens

and we have to adapt to a new situation.

So Jesse talks about the importance of accessibility

for various tools and websites,

and I wanted to refer you back to episode 679,

content for everyone, Accessibility for with Jeff Adams. And Jeff has a book on this very important topic too. So you can go back and look

at that. Or you can always find the show notes and all the old episodes at the creativepen.com

forward slash podcast.

Also, as this goes out, my Kickstarter launches next week, 9th of October.

So if you're interested in writing the shadow, turn your inner darkness into words.
