Hello! I’m Melissa Bourbon, and this podcast is a place where the craft of writing, conversations with writers, the world of creativity, and business converge.
When I stepped onto my own writing path, I was an avid reader, but not a writer. I didn’t know anything about the actual craft, and I knew nothing about the publishing industry. But I had a dream to become a published author and I set out to learn everything I could.
Now I’m a national bestselling author of more than 30 novels. I’m published traditionally, and I’ve recently plunged into the world of indie publishing. And I teach people like you how to grow in their craft and find success in this ever-changing industry.
I’m here as your partner as you navigate your own writing journey. I’m here to help you understand the essential elements of the writing craft, to build your confidence, and to help you find the success you desire. Welcome to the WriterSpark Podcast.

Reasons Why Every Author Needs an Editor
Every writer needs an editor, but do you know why and what they do for you?
Do you know what editors do and what different types of edits mean? Developmental. Substantive. Line. Copy. They each have their own purposes.
As well as being an author, writing coach and instructor, and cover art designer, I am also a freelance editor. Today I’m talking with Donalee Moulton, who is also an author and freelance editor. This episode is chock full of great information. Enjoy!
