We dive deep into her journey into writing and what poetry means to her, exploring how the creative process can be both a personal sanctuary and a public offering. Danielle opens up about navigating the highs and lows of the social media game—from comparison and mental health struggles to dealing with negativity and finding genuine connection. We discuss the delicate balance between writing for yourself versus writing for others, as well as the vulnerability that comes with sharing your art with the world. We also touch on the challenges authors face in today’s literary landscape, including imposter syndrome, wearing multiple hats as creators, and the difficulty of marketing books while staying true to your craft. Danielle shares powerful insights about why writers shouldn’t undervalue themselves by giving their work away for free. Finally, Danielle offers a glimpse into her creative process for If Adam Picked the Apple and reads two poems from her collection. These pieces delve into themes central to the female experience, such as repressed anger and motherhood, offering a raw, unfiltered look at the complexities of being a woman. This is an inspiring and thought-provoking conversation about creativity, resilience, and finding your voice as a writer. Tune in for a heartfelt discussion and a sneak peek into Danielle’s beautifully crafted debut collection.
