Vicky sits down with author Camila Arguello and asks her all sorts of pointy questions about courage, shitty first drafts, and writing her book. Tune in to find out how this supercool business woman came up with her idea – and why it's important to do what YOU want, not conform to everyone else's expectations. There's also a brief discussion about Brooklyn 99, because it wouldn't be a 1,000 Authors Show episode without a random ramble.

 

Key Takeaways:

[0:50] A little bit about Camila and what she does. 

[5:35] Camila hears two sides of the story: That now is the perfect time to work more, and at the same time, that you should be resting and take it easy. Who should you listen to? 

[8:00] You don’t have to justify every decision you make to other people. 

[9:10] What do you want for YOU? 

[12:45] Why did Camila decide it was time to write a book? 

[15:35] Camila used to write men’s dating profiles and thought this would be an excellent book opportunity. 

[18:35] It was very hard for Camila to not use the backspace key when she was in ‘writing mode’.

[20:35] You can get a lot done when your brain is not overthinking things. 

[22:55] What was the editing process like for Camila? 

[27:30] How is Camila selling her book?
