The Write2Ignite Podcast Ep. 2: Carol Baldwin

Posted on by Kyle R Morgan

For 18 years, Carol Baldwin worked on a historical YA novel titled “Half-Truths.” Reading books, interviewing people, and visiting locations, Carol poured her heart and soul into telling the story of an unlikely relationship between two girls in 1950 North Carolina. One white, one black.

Now that the book has been published, Carol offers some insights on how to persevere, what she learned over the years, and how much research it takes to bring a moment in history to life. Stay tuned to the end of the episode, to learn how to win a copy of Half-Truths!

  2. If we know God has called us to write a particular thing, we have to hang in there. It’s all about God’s timing! I say this with authority as I’ve been trying to get a manuscript picked up for over 20 years. God hasn’t released me to self-publish it. I know He’s going to get me to the right publishing house. I know it. So that keeps me going.
