Season 5, Episode 5: The Stubborn Kind (ft. Jessica Terry)

Author: Tati R. and Yaki E November 10, 2023 Duration: 1:46:22


We interview author Jessica Terry, creator of nearly 25 indie books and several series about her upcoming release The Stubborn Kind. We also talk about her writing process, what inspired her to write romance and her job as a ghostwriter for some very popular folks.


About Jessica:

To Jessica, putting out a new book is twice as exciting as someone saying they brought her food. Writing was her first love (cliché alert) and she loves it as much now as she did when she was a child spending hours and hours holed up in her room creating. This Georgia peach has many interests, having majored in Sport Management at Georgia Southern and gotten certified in Neuromuscular Therapy from Rising Spirit Institute of Natural Health, but writing is always in the top spot. In addition to her novels, Jessica is also a copywriter and a ghostwriter and is working towards her degree in Communications. Jessica still lives in Georgia.
