RedPubPod 045: Academic Writer Turned Published Author Jane Everson Discusses Her debut book: Everyday Women, Extraordinary Wisdom

Academic Writer turned Published Author Jane Everson discusses her debut book:

Everyday Women, Extraordinary Wisdom

We’re excited to have North Carolina author Jane Everson in the studio today. Gather 'round as she shares her writing journey—one that almost led her down the path of Scandinavian murder mysteries. (Yeah, imagine that!) Lucky for us, she chose instead to spotlight everyday women—and the result is nothing short of magical.

Jane chats with Redhawk Publications editor Patty Thompson and special guest host Michelle Morgan from Hickory’s own Women’s Resource Center. She walks us through her leap from academic writing to crafting a more personal, narrative-driven book—one filled with real women’s voices from all walks of life and corners of the country.

Aspiring writers, take note: Jane drops some solid wisdom about navigating tone edits, collaborating on book cover design, and the underrated art of not rushing into your next project. It’s all about letting the current book breathe (and sell!).

There’s a lot to learn in this episode—about writing, resilience, and the special bond between Jane and the Women’s Resource Center, which will host a fundraiser/book launch in August 2025. Tune in for a generous dose of inspiration, storytelling, and behind-the-scenes book talk..
