About this episode

Raymond Foster discusses his writing journey and the lessons learned from his two books.

In this episode, we talk to Raymond Foster. He describes himself with his Myers-Briggs types: openness, disagreeableness, and conscientiousness. Raymond lives in the United States. Raymond tells us about sitting on a comma with writing two books that each taught him different things about himself and his process. When Raymond was compiling his work stories into his first fiction book, he struggled with making it come together. Meanwhile, another book called to him and he struggled with naming it. Upon reflection and after stepping away from needing to be right, he saw how the two books needed each other in order to come to life; and he saw what the process taught him along the way. Tune in to hear what Raymond means when he says “I’m avoiding the story arc, that is me”.
