And she’s got a school for genre writers<\/a> who love community and learning at their own pace. Her blog<\/a> chronicles all things Beth, and creative writing how-to articles by her and other creative writers, and if you want to find her on social media, her links are here: Twitter<\/a>, Facebook<\/a>, Instagram<\/a>.<\/p>\n

\"Jody<\/a>About Jody Sperling<\/h2>\n

Author and founder of cre8 collabor8, a podcast for novelists who value marketing.<\/p>\n

Jody Sperling writes fiction. He’s spent twenty years dreaming of the phone call from FSG, accepting his novel for publication, but after landing a literary agent in 2019 and failing to woo publishers, Jody’s dream wilted, and while he never quit writing and reading, by the end of 2021, he’d so completely lost track of his purpose that he’d amassed a portfolio of rental houses and was toying with starting a short-term rental business.<\/p>\n

Then he had a vision of all the people who, like him, had pursued their dream of publishing only to find themselves disillusioned and defeated. That’s the day he decided to found cre8 collabor8, a podcast and publishing platform designed to help other wrestling writers tell their story, improve their craft, and find a path to publication.<\/p>\n

Through a creative collaboration, Jody is committed to bringing those like him support, encouragement, income, and most importantly, an audience, because what’s the point of telling a story if nobody’s paying attention?<\/p>\n
