Interview With An Aspiring Indie Author

Chelsea Jo, aspiring indie author. I really miss my red hair and this haircut!

Okay, transparent moment, I find it 100 times harder to write a blog post than I do a story!  Insane, I know, but my mind isn't quite wrapped around the idea of sticking to a topic, without going on a tangent.  In the end, I stayed on topic by interviewing myself, what can I say, creative solutions.  Well, now that that is out of the way, let's talk about the first step in my journey to becoming an Indie Author.

Obsidian Sky: First question: You're not published, can you call yourself an Indie Author?
Chelsea Jo: That's a tough one that may depend on definitions and such; however, I've decided to just own it.  I am an Indie Author, unpublished as of yet.
​
Obsidian: Why would you choose to become an author?
Chelsea Jo: I love writing, all kinds of writing.  I also love to research and to read.  I'm also really good at all those things, so I have a strong resume to be an author.  I chose to be an author at this time in my life because, well, COVID-19 happened.  As a nurse with serious allergies, I pretty much can't work.  No one wants a private duty nurse, that's coughing and sneezing, around their immunocompromised child right now.
