Alright – so today we’ve got the honor of introducing you to JB Teller. We think you’ll enjoy our conversation, we’ve shared it below.
JB, thanks for taking the time to share your stories with us today What’s been the most meaningful project you’ve worked on?
I first started writing when my son went to school for the first time. He had been m doc ally comprised for many years. He started actual school in fifth grade. I all of a sudden didn’t have a full time job with him. So, the first day I went to the coffee shop I sat there. This went on for several days until I decided to write down some adventures that my sister and I have had over the previous several years. After about a week of that, I had finished writing all of those adventures. Then I decided to turn those adventures into a fictional romcom. At the very same time as I was deciding to write the romcom of mine and my sister’s adventures, we learned that my sister had cancer. It became a way for us to relive all the funny things that happened to us..As the months went on, It quickly turned into my mission to finish this book and read it to her before it was too late. Thankfully, I was able to do that.
JB, love having you share your insights with us. Before we ask you more questions, maybe you can take a moment to introduce yourself to our readers who might have missed our earlier conversations?
My books come from the very heart of my being. And I hope that they speak to you of real characters and touch on heart felt moments of who I really am. I put part of myself in all my books. My books are a way to keep my sister alive and well and her with me or at least living and walking around in my made up worlds of my books.
Are there any resources you wish you knew about earlier in your creative journey?
I wish I would have known about the tight knit writing community that’s out there. They have been unlimited resources for me.
What do you find most rewarding about being a creative?
I think the most rewarding part of writing is being able to write whatever I want to write. I can make up what ever I want and whoever I want. The world I create can be anything and everything all at once.
