Mary Adkins is a novelist, recovered lawyer, and a mother. She traded in her Ann Taylor pantsuits to enter the wild west of fiction writing, She read tomes about the craft of storytelling. Mary memorized devices like Chekhov’s Gun and Save the Cat and The 15 Beats so she could write “the right way.” Now after publishing many novels she helps professionals write the books they always dreamed of. In this conversation, Ryan and Mary discuss the ways our personalities can be used to our advantage, why the day job is the secret sauce for creation, permission to create, and much more.
