This week I'm sitting down with contemporary indie author Colleen Young to talk about imposter syndrome, Romance and genre acceptance, and the challenges of not feeling "good enough". Colleen has been writing since 2016 and has published 7 full-length novels. In addition, she has also published companion novellas and a short story. You can learn more about Colleen by visiting her website (colleenyoungwriter.com) or finding her on Instagram (@colleenyoungwriter).
