Summary: <p>Book Club Fiction Author Lyn Liao Butler joins Queries, Qualms, & Quirks this week to discuss the book that started as a blog, dissecting her favorite books to learn to write, doing an R&R, not getting into Pitch Wars (for a great reason), reviving trunked novels, post-publication uncertainty, traveling for research, the importance of community, and the benefit of an agent in your corner.</p> <p>Lyn Liao Butler was born in Taiwan and moved to the States when she was seven. Before becoming an author, she was a professional ballet and modern dancer, and is still a personal trainer and fitness and yoga instructor. She is an avid animal lover who fosters dogs and volunteers with rescues. When she is not torturing clients or talking to imaginary characters, Lyn enjoys spending time with her FDNY husband, their son (the happiest little boy in the world), and their three stubborn dachshunds; sewing for her Etsy shop; and trying complicated yoga poses on a stand-up paddleboard. So far, she has not fallen into the water.</p> <p>Lyn: <a href="https://docs.google.com/document/d/10uQNhTmk-Qs8Y_2Ksryfz2BZMvA8msLtI2wAIHcFhL8/edit?usp=sharing"><u>Query</u></a> | <a href="http://www.lynliaobutler.com/"><u>Website</u></a> | <a href="http://www.twitter.com/lynliaobutler"><u>Twitter</u></a> | <a href="http://www.instagram.com/lynliaobutler"><u>Instagram</u></a> | <a href="https://amzn.to/3vmezDS"><u>Amazon</u></a> | <a href="https://bookshop.org/a/1209/9780593198728"><u>Bookshop</u></a> | <a href="https://www.indiebound.org/book/9781662501081?aff=72724"><u>IndieBound</u></a> | <a href="https://libro.fm/referral?isbn=%209780593346723&rf_code=lfm164099"><u>Libro FM</u></a></p> <p><a href="https://sarahnicolas.com/queries-qualms-quirks/"><u>QQQ Home Base</u></a> |<a href="https://www.patreon.com/pubtalklive"> <u>Support on Patreon</u></a></p> <p>If links aren't clickable, find them here: <a href="https://bit.ly/qqqbutler">https://bit.ly/qqqbutler</a> </p> <p>This page includes affiliate links.
