Ildiko talking about my novel ‘The Light Within You’ (not yet published)


In addition to the imposter syndrome, writers struggle with many demons. I also struggle with the superstition of not talking about the books I'm working on, lest I scare away the chances of them being published. And here I am today, showing my vulnerability.

If it weren't for Ildiko, I probably wouldn't have stepped out of my comfort zone; it's hard, really hard to try to fight old habits. But Ildiko was brave enough for me too and talked not in one video, but in three, about my unpublished novel, "The Light Within You."

I feel honored to be read, supported, and encouraged in such a sincere and beautiful way! I bow to you, Ildiko!
