In this episode of the Duct Tape Marketing Podcast, I interview Argentina-based author Leigh Shulman\u2014a writing mentor with two decades of experience under her belt. <\/span><\/p>\n

She founded The Inspired Writer Community<\/a>, an online mentoring community for writers at any stage in their writing lives. Her bestselling book <\/span>The Writer\u2019s Roadmap: Paving the Way To Your Ideal Writing Life<\/span><\/a> helps thousands find their way in the writing world. Her international writing retreat and website are listed as The Write Life\u2019s top resources for writers, and her words have appeared in The New York Times, Washington Post, Longreads, and Guernica, among others. <\/span><\/p>\n

Leigh lives with her family, where she writes and contemplates (like most writers do) about whether she\u2019s the only person who doesn\u2019t like Dulce de Leche. <\/span>We discuss the profound impact of writing a book on business success, the importance of storytelling in both fiction and nonfiction, and the role of coaching in the writing process. We also explore how books can serve as trust builders, the influence of AI on writing, and strategies for finding time to write amidst busy schedules.<\/p>\n
