If the words 'branding' and 'fonts' make your brain hurt, you're not alone! In this down-to-earth episode of Writing at the Red House, Kathi Lipp teams up with brand manager Tenneil Register to crack open the secrets of authentic author branding—without the overwhelm. Kathi and Tenneil share hilarious failures, real-life lessons, and practical advice on picking brand colors and fonts that reflect your unique God-given message, not just what's trendy or cute (we see you, Pepto-pink checkerboards).  
 
Whether you're just starting your writing journey or realizing it's time to refresh your look, you'll learn the two powerful questions every writer needs to ask before choosing brand colors, why it's okay if you wear the same shirt for every author photo (hello, chambray!), and what makes a font family work. No design degree required—just a willingness to lean into your story, your faith, and a bit of fun! Plus: discover how your branding can make writing life (and laundry!) a whole lot easier.
