Summary:In this episode of Backstage with the Book Babes, we interview Canadian romance author, Cortney Murchie. She writes in a variety of contemporary romance subgenres, but her current published works include the Unmatched series, where she gets to dig into her personal experiences with online dating and share the chaos. If you’ve got any online dating horror stories, she’d be happy to hear about them.We get into the varying spice levels of her books including Sleigh Your Name, her self-professed Smutty Christmas Romance book. This includes some research into candy cane toys and questionable uses of tinsel.We learn about some of the staples of her writing process including snacks and trashy reality TV shows. We also discuss her poetry books and her failed foray into using a typewriter to create typewritten poetry. Apparently it’s a lot more work than a regular computer keyboard.She tells us about her experience making audiobooks with her narrator Casey Montgomery, and the editing services she offers other authors.Book Babe Nikki initially met Cortney at the Romance, Eh? Event in Edmonton, Alberta, so we reminisce a little about that and hear about her first signing events.If you love a little chaos, a lot of heart and similar vibes to the book babes, you’ll love this episode.If you listen and it brings you joy, make sure to leave a review or help support the podcast through Buy Me A Coffee. Music by Christopher TallonHelp Support the podcast:Buy Alby a tea: https://buymeacoffee.com/albyblakeBuy Nikki a tea: buymeacoffee.com/nikkijewellAbout Our Guest:Influenced by her wild imagination and life experiences, Cortney loves to explore the depths of emotion and the unconventional. When she isn’t lost in her writing, you can find her nose buried in a good book, watching hockey or spending time with her favourite people—her twins.Cortney pours her heart and soul into every piece she creates and has been writing from a very young age.
