Welcome to Ines Johnson is Having a Breakdown!
Hi, I’m Ines; I write kissing books. I’m also a former television producer, prolific romance author, lover of planners, Post-Its, and gold star stickers. Juggling writing, publishing, marketing, and life sometimes feels like one big, messy breakdown. That’s where this Substack comes in.
Here, I’ll share my insights, tips, and personal experiences from over a decade of writing and publishing more than 100 books. You’ll find posts packed with practical advice, candid reflections, and plenty of cheerleading to keep you motivated.
So grab your favorite planner (or a napkin if you’re in a pinch), pour yourself a cup of tae (or wine—I don’t judge), and join me as I break down the systems, strategies, and stories that help us all write, create, and pay ourselves well.
Why snag a paid subscription?
If you love the free weekly posts on writing craft and marketing advice, you’ll adore what’s behind the paywall! For just $8 a month paid subscribers get access to two additional features.
ONE EXCLUSIVE WEBINAR EACH MONTH where I dive deep into writing, publishing, and marketing strategies. In these hour long workshops I discuss topics such as How I Failed My Way to Six Figures, Stealing Secrets from Hollywood to Write Bingeworthy Books, and Back that Book Up: Promotion Strategies for Selling Your Backlist.
NONFICTION DRAFTS where you’ll also be the first to see my nonfiction books take shape! I drafted my first book, Page Turner Pacing, exclusively for paid members, and I have three more planned:
Page Turner Tension, all about crafting a compelling second act.
Page Turner Passion, with tips for writing swoon-worthy kissing and sex scenes.
Page Turner Revision, breaking down my step-by-step revision process.
When you subscribe, you’re not just supporting this space—you’re investing in your own author journey. For $8 a month, you’ll get access to invaluable resources, insider tips, and inspiration to keep you writing, publishing, and thriving.
