New Book Empowers Introverted Writers in a "Loud" Publishing World

CROFTON, Md. - Dec. 9, 2025 - PRLog -- In a publishing world demanding "always-on" influence, introverted writers often face burnout. Michelle Carey challenges this status quo in her new book, The Reluctant Author: Thriving as an Introverted Writer in a Loud Industry, releasing December 21, 2025.

Carey, a retired federal HC strategist, argues that introverted traits like deep focus are superpowers, not liabilities. "The reluctant author doesn't have to become a different person to succeed," says Carey. "We don't need to be louder. We need to be more strategic."

The book offers a framework for sustainable marketing, authentic networking, and protective boundaries, serving as a permission slip for writers to stop pretending to be extroverts.

Availability The Reluctant Author will be available for purchase on Amazon and accessible via Kindle Unlimited starting December 21, 2025.

She writes fiction and non-fiction, including The Crofton Triangle (coming soon in 2026) and Get to Writing. She empowers writers who have stories to tell but struggle to be heard above the noise.
