In our two-part interview for The Paper Wings Show, Abbey Cleland talked about the crazy way she made a career as a freelance writer.

She also shared some mind-blowing writing advice like:

  • How to work in Hollywood while living somewhere you actually like.
  • Why we should be “fiercely specific” in our pitches.
  • And how bad ideas can help you break through writer’s block.

In this extended interview – which features over 40 minutes of extra audio – you’ll hear even more surprising writing advice and some hilarious personal stories…
