The Hidden Gems Author Podcast

Episode 171 – Bleeding onto the Page: The Emotional Journey of a First Novel

Hosted by: Craig Tuch and Roland Hulme with special guest Elle Christopher

This week on Fully Booked, we’re joined by romance author Elle Christopher, whose debut novel is rooted in profound personal loss and emotional transformation. After the sudden death of her husband, Elle turned to writing as a coping mechanism for both herself and her five children. What started as a private act of healing eventually evolved into an immersive love story that has already struck a chord with early readers.

Drawing from her background in corporate marketing, Elle shares how she applied those skills to the steep learning curve of self-publishing. From navigating beta reader feedback and laying the foundation for a personal brand, to finding authentic ways to connect with readers in a crowded market, Elle discusses her experience as a first-time author. With no formal writing background, she dove into research and quickly discovered that sincerity and authenticity can be some of the most powerful tools in reaching an audience.
