From Writer to Author: The Podcast
Got a story burning inside you—but no clue where to start (or how to finish)? Or maybe you’ve already published but want to grow your reach, your readers, and your confidence as an author?
Welcome to From Writer to Author: The Podcast, where we get real about what it takes to become a successful author. Hosted by Veronica G.—Amazon bestselling author of ten books (including two international bestsellers), book editor, formatter, and coach—this show is your weekly roadmap to writing better, publishing smarter, and building a thriving author business that lasts.
Drawing on nearly two decades of experience working with powerhouse brands like Tony Robbins and T. Harv Eker, Veronica brings a mix of creative strategy, tough love, and real-world know-how to every episode.
Each week, you’ll get practical advice, honest conversations, and behind-the-scenes insights into every part of the writing and publishing process—from finding your voice and finishing your manuscript to mastering self-publishing, launching your book, and marketing it like a pro.
Whether you’re staring at a blank page or celebrating your tenth book, you’ll find inspiration, motivation, and actionable steps to turn your writing dream into your author reality.
It’s time to stop just calling yourself a writer—and start owning your place as an author.

S1 E17 - Finding Your Ideal Reader and Writing for Them
Use Left/Right to seek, Home/End to jump to start or end. Hold shift to jump forward or backward.
In this episode of From Writer to Author: The Podcast with Veronica G, we’re addressing a challenge that quietly holds many authors back:
You love what you wrote… but readers aren’t responding the way you expected.
Maybe your book isn’t selling consistently.
Maybe your marketing feels scattered.
Maybe you’re unsure how to describe your book in a way that makes people instantly interested.
It can feel confusing—especially when you know the writing itself is strong.
The truth? The issue often isn’t talent, effort, or even quality. It’s clarity.
When you don’t have a clearly defined ideal reader, your message becomes broad. Your positioning becomes blurry. Your marketing becomes guesswork. And guesswork rarely leads to steady results.
In this episode, you’ll discover how to shift from writing simply because you can… to writing with purpose, direction, and connection. You’ll learn why understanding your reader changes everything—from how your book is shaped to how it’s presented to the world.
If you want your books to resonate more deeply…
If you want your marketing to feel focused instead of forced…
If you want a better chance at consistent royalties instead of unpredictable spikes…
This episode will help you see what might be missing—and how to fix it.
Because building an author career isn’t just about writing well.
It’s about writing with someone specific in mind.
