Summary: <p>Women’s Fiction Author Sierra Godfrey joins Queries, Qualms, & Quirks this week to discuss how it's okay if you need longer than other writers, selling a book quickly by doing ten years pre-work, having your agent leave the business, why writers truly need agents, feelings of inadequacy, comparison being the thief of joy, and the importance of learning the market.</p> <p>Sierra Godfrey is the author of A Very Typical Family (Sourcebooks) and a forthcoming title in September 2023. She was born in Santa Cruz, California and has lived many places, including Santorini, Greece. She loves hiking, watching soothing British farmland shows, and thinking of stories about messy families. She lives in the San Francisco Bay Area with her family, which includes a dog, two cats, and a turtle, all of which seemed like a good idea at the time.</p> <p>Sierra: <a href="https://docs.google.com/document/d/1xb5cwLrt61VevxgfTqMqgwKg1uWhkBGQf6D82U5n0w8/edit?usp=sharing"><u>Query</u></a> | <a href="http://www.sierragodfrey.com/"><u>Website</u></a> | <a href="https://www.facebook.com/Sierragodfrey/"><u>Facebook</u></a> | <a href="http://www.twitter.com/sierragodfrey"><u>Twitter</u></a> | <a href="http://www.instagram.com/sierragodfrey"><u>Instagram</u></a> | <a href="https://amzn.to/3XDsxx7"><u>Amazon</u></a> | <a href="https://bookshop.org/a/1209/9781728255200"><u>Bookshop</u></a> | <a href="https://www.indiebound.org/book/9781728255200?aff=72724"><u>IndieBound</u></a> | <a href="https://libro.fm/referral?isbn=%209798212005296&rf_code=lfm164099"><u>Libro FM</u></a></p> <p><a href="https://sarahnicolas.com/queries-qualms-quirks/"><u>QQQ Home Base</u></a> |<a href="https://www.patreon.com/sarahnicolas"><u> Support on Patreon</u></a></p> <p><a href="https://docs.google.com/document/d/1lXcJUF4m-JU7MSYkyLQeG8a-75PxCv0-/edit?usp=sharing&ouid=117960902139688351428&rtpof=true&sd=true"><u>Read the full transcript.</u></a></p> <p>If links aren't clickable, find them here: <a href="https://bit.ly/qqqgodfrey"><u>https://bit.ly/qqqgodfrey</u></a></p> <p>This page includes affiliate links.
