Mindset, Marketing, and the Art of Borrowing Ideas with Author Dacia Arnold

I first met Dacia Arnold in a class that I was teaching at the Colorado Gold writer’s conference in Denver. What I was teaching didn’t answer her questions—so she went out and created a class that did! You’ll hear the whole fun story in this episode of the Creativity Quest podcast (keep scrolling for download and links to popular podcast apps.) Dacia inspired me with her energetic and action oriented approach to the creative process and I believe she will inspire you too!

Here’s the short form of this amazing woman’s bio:

Dacia M Arnold is an award-winning American novelist, freelance writer, mother, and ten-year Army Veteran. She is the author of Apparent Power, Reactance and Shifting Power, and a small collection called The Brightest Firefly. As a freelance writer, Dacia contributes monthly to the Rocky Mountain Fiction Writer’s blog where she shares her relatively short experience in the literary world. She will never turn down an invitation to karaoke, because she is here to party but also be in bed by 8pm. Dacia’s pipedream is to one day narrate an episode of “Drunk History” and tell the story of “The Unsinkable” Molly Brown. Until then her friends must suffer through unsolicited rehearsals.
