Ready for a front seat on the roller coaster ride of the writing world?
Today's guest has pretty much done it all. From working in the theater, to writing Pakistani soap operas in New York, to moving to L.A. to pitch T.V. scripts, then transitioning to prose during the pandemic, there's barely a writing project that Lawrence hasn't tried.
He's applied that same can-do attitude to marketing. His number one question—which we can all learn from—is "can I make this fun for myself?" Don't fear failure. It can all be fixed in post.
We also touch on a bunch of tips and tools we each use nearly every day, including Canva, iMovie, and Matthew Holmes's Facebook Ads course.**
Lawrence Allan is an award winning mystery writer of the Jimmy Cooper Mysteries. His debut novel BIG F@!KING DEAL was a Shamus Award Finalist. He holds an MFA in Playwrighting from the University of Texas at Austin and lives in Los Angeles.
