How Chelsea Martin Strikes the Balance Between Prolific & Perfectionist

The Bleeders: about book writing & publishing

Today's guest is Chelsea Martin. I adore indie queens like Chelsea. She has been incredibly prolific thus far in her literary career, and I love her "just do it" approach to publishing. We talk about how to balance perfectionist tendencies with being productive and putting out a lot of work, how to deal with a shitty publisher, the joys of having a good agent, and more. Follow Chelsea on Instagram @chelsea_martin_.
Order Chelsea's new novel Tell Me I'm an Artist and one of my favorite essay collects of all-time, Caca Dolce.
