Uncorking a Story

Hosted ByMike Carlon

Stories influence, teach and inspire us, but what about the storytellers who create them? Uncorking a Story profiles storytellers to uncover how their background and life experiences influence the stories they create. We learn what motivates them, their path to success, and what fuels them to keep creating. It all starts by asking one simple question, where does your story begin? Welcome to uncorking a story.

Today’s guest on Uncorking a Story, Lyn Liao Butler, is the type of person who likes to have many irons in the fire. While working as a professional ballet and modern dancer in New York City, she ran her own gym. After retiring from dancing, she started a family, built an online business, and began writing novels. I got exhausted just thinking about all she does! One thing that stayed with me was Lyn’s advice to aspiring authors—to give it all you got. Your talent will get an agent’s interest, but your passion will sell your story. I hope you enjoy this conversation as much as I did. 

Meet Lyn Liao Butler

Lyn was born in Taiwan and moved to the States when she was seven. Before becoming an author, she was a professional ballet and modern dancer, and is still a personal trainer, fitness instructor, and yoga instructor. She joins me today on Uncorking a Story to talk about her novel Someone Else’s Life.

Key Topics:

  1. Her journey to getting published
  2. Bringing Taiwanese American characters into her books
  3. Food playing an important part of all her books
  4. How she accidentally wrote a thriller
  5. How Lyn took inspiration from her real life when writing Someone Else’s Life
  6. Lyn’s cure for writer’s block
  7. Why you should never read reviews even when tempted.
