The Emotions of Publication | Huma Qureshi

It’s always such a treat to read a novel that has a main character who is a writer, but writing a main character who is a writer is a whole different thing. Huma Qureshi, author of Playing Games, is on the Secret Library today and she’s sharing her journey of finally writing the book that she knew she was always meant to write — even in her 40s. Huma talks through the magic of flow, humanizing your characters, and working through every motion of the writing process. This episode is such a delight. Connect with Caroline on Instagram: @carodonahue Get full access to Book Alchemy at www.book-alchemy.com/subscribe
