Daphne James Huff on Recovering from Writer Burnout
Use Left/Right to seek, Home/End to jump to start or end. Hold shift to jump forward or backward.
Daphne James Huff, author of sweet kissing-only romance, burned out in 2019 after publishing 6 books in a year WHILE also working full time AND running a podcast.
At the time, the Amazon algorithm rewarded constant publishing, and Daphne bought into that, to the detriment of her mental health.
In this interview, she shares how she identified, dealt with, and overcame the burnout.
As of 2023, she's back in publishing, now at a much more sustainable pace of 2 books a year.
