LDK 40 - Editing, Chocolate, and (No) Coffee

This week on LDK, we have a wonderful time talking with Laura VanArendonk Baugh (try saying that three times fast!) We managed to get a few details about ancient Japanese culture, of which, Laura seems to be a near-expert on.

In Episode 40

• We nearly kill Aaron with Laura's response to plotting  problems. Laura definitely had us in stitches with this one.
• We talk Scrivener, which we're delighted to find she makes use of it, though not 100% of the time.
• Laura's winning editing process.
• Laura's reasons for eating chocolate!
• Training your subconscious.
• The non-coffee-drinking writers!
• Crazy research--and how it's paid off in Laura's life! (And don't Google search the one thing she mentions!)
• Some of Laura's marketing techniques (hint: a lot of it has to do with personality!)
