I'm always amazed by authors who have the ability to come up with enough plots to write so many books in a year! Also, I am so happy I came across this podcast because it has helped me with my own writing craft and the side benefit is being introduced to so many authors. It tickles me that Clare Connelly finds inspiration from Georgette Heyer. Many authors in the romance genre know who Georgette Heyer is, but it still makes me happy when someone refers to her.
Hello, I really enjoy the SPA girls podcast, thanks for sharing all the great information. I couldn't find howtowritelove on TH-cam, so link would be appreciated. I did subscribe to the newsletter on the website. I would appreciate the how to write love class.
Hi, loved the show. I'm a steamy contemporary romance author so would love the How to Write Love course. So many insights in this interview. Love your content ladies. From the Republic of Panama.
Thank you for such a wonderful, informative author interview-it was chock full of valuable information. I would love to win the How to Write Love course please 😊
I just came across this channel for the first time today. What a great podcast episode of SPA Girls - so interesting and inspiring. I'm officially hooked now! And I'd absolutely love to win the "How to Write Love" course! (And if I don't win a free spot, I'm putting it in my calendar to book for the one at the end of the year.)
Great interview! It's always a bit weird to hear those early success stories, but then you think: Clare must have done something really really right from the start. Especially the blurb writing and changing during pre-order sounded fascinating. So I would love to throw my hat in the ring to win the How-to-selfpublish course. Following up with the mail now...
Hi ladies, started watching you after you interviewed Sarra Cannon and have enjoyed your channel since - thanks for the chance to win the How to Write Love course 😊
Hello! Would love to enter the competition to win a spot in Clare’s How To Self-Publish course! Have emailed you as well - thanks for another wonderful, inspiring episode xoxo Prerna
I want to be inspired, but it's kind of depressing. I'm busting my gut to build a newsletter list, build a street team, writing in series, learning ads, releasing every 3 months... to crickets. While I've given away thousands of copies of book 1 and when I set book 2 to free, I gave away over a thousand copies in a day, I've only had (exactly!) 100 sales in 3 months and 40 preorders for book 3. There's no way to come out of this without feeling inadequate. I'm trying so hard. I just don't know what else to do to get this moving. I badly need this to work and nothing seems to move the needle.
It IS hard to keep the faith gray_mara Join some author groups, get some feedback on your published work (and it's "packaging") and keep going. 40 preorders is REALLY good when you're starting out. Many of us were in the single digits for preorders for a looooong time (((hugs)))
Every time I watch one of the Spa Girls episodes, I get so caught up that I sit back and day dream of being a guest on their show!

Entered! Thanks Prerna!
Another brilliant podcast 😊
Thanks so much!
By the way, I think the quote that Clare was trying to think of near the end is the Samuel Goldwyn one: "The harder I work, the luckier I get."
That's it! Thanks Cherry!
Another great video! Don't mind me, off to investigate some courses (because too much information is never enough? lol)
