Caitlin Berve recently published a collection of modern fairy tales called When Magic Calls. She's also written two other anthologies and has another one in the works. 

While she's not writing, Caitlin runs her own writing business and coaches other writers on how they can improve their books and their craft. In addition to all that, she also edits memoir and fiction.

I recently had the chance to catch up with Caitlin and was fascinated to hear how she balances both her writing business and creative work.

I also found out that Caitlin took an MFA in creative writing. Many new writers wonder if they need to take an MFA before they can write a book, so I put that question to Caitlyn, and I think you'll find her answer says a lot about what it takes to become a successful writer today.In this episode we discuss:

  • How Caitlin manages her time
  • Mistakes that memoir writers make
  • Types of memoirs
  • Finding an editor for your book
  • Advice on joining a critique group
  • Finding the balance between client work and writing
  • How to use a setting as more than a backdrop
  • Tips for selling more books
