Episode 096

Released on: January 15, 2026

On this episode of the Self-Publishing Tips & Tricks podcast, we chat with multi-genre author A. Adeshile, whose stories span everything from epic fantasy to paranormal romance to post-apocalyptic thrillers. He shares how he made the leap from firefighter to full-time writer, and how his background in psychology, anime, and tabletop gaming influences his character-driven, emotionally layered storytelling. We explore his interconnected story universe, how he juggles multiple genres, and why letting go of perfection is essential for growth. If you’ve ever struggled to finish your book or wondered how to turn life experience into fiction, this episode will leave you inspired to keep going.
