Lani Diane Rich wrote her first book during National Novel Writing Month a decade ago and became the first unpublished author to sell a NaNoWriMo manuscript. Time Off For Good Behavior won the RITA Award for “Best First Book,” and since then Lani has published seven more well-received solo books and one collaboration. Obviously, her beginner’s luck was no accident.
Lani tops today’s Buffet with A Little Ray of Sunshine, her 2008 novel that focuses on a mother-daughter relationship. It’s a moving, well told story.
When she’s not writing, she’s frequently speaking to a microphone, sometimes in her pyjamas. She hosts the podcasts “Popcorn Dialogues” with Jenny Crusie and “StoryWonk Sunday” with Alastair Stephens, her husband. She also hosted the “Will Write for Wine” podcast with C.J. Barry from 2007 to 2010.
As a writing coach and teacher, Lani has worked with hundreds of aspiring authors. She concludes all her workshops with a simple exercise in the power of positive thinking. She forces her students to speak the words, out loud, “I’m a great writer!”
“I feel like it’s a self-fulfilling prophecy,” Lani told me yesterday. “If you tell yourself you’re no good, you’ll write like you’re no good. Instead, say that you’re a great writer. Say it, believe it, then write like you believe it, and you’ll be amazed what you can accomplish.”
For more advice on the craft and magic of storytelling, check out Lani’s programs at StoryWonk.
With her novels, Lani has recently transitioned from standard romance to paranormal romantic comedies using the pseudonym Lucy March. According to Booklist, Lucy’s debut three weeks ago for St. Martin’s Press was “positively magical.”
Lani currently lives in Cincinnati with her husband and two daughters, but will return this summer to her old stomping grounds in New York state, where she’ll be on the adjunct faculty at Syracuse University’s Newhouse School for Public Communications. “I love teaching, I love story, and I love talking about story, and teaching is a way I can get paid to talk about story,” Lani said. “So I’m pretty sure I’ll keep doing that as long as people will let me.”
