In episode 10 of The Writing Coach, I speak with writing coach Charlotte Rains Dixon.
Charlotte is a novelist, freelance journalist, blogger, ghostwriter, fiction and non-fiction author, and writing coach. She earned her MFA in creative writing from Spalding University and is a current mentor at the Writer’s Loft, a certificate writing program at Middle Tennessee State University.

During the interview, Charlotte describes:
- how she’s been blogging about writing for almost 8 years;
- why a writing career that started in freelance journalism led to fiction writing;
- the roles writing groups and mentors played in her development as an author;
- why the world would be a better place if everyone let their creative spirits out;
