Check out the incredible writers podcast Listening to the Voices in Our Heads on YouTube. I was interviewed by the wonderful Jenna O’Malley, who is not only the genius behind the podcast but a fantasy author herself.
We had a wonderful wide-ranging conversation about writing, characters, researching our books, diverse writing voices, writing with disabilities, and so much more. And, of course, we talked about The Lost Princess of Story, which has had an incredible first month since being published July 16.
Lost Princess has been #1 Hot New Release and #1 New Release in two different Amazon categories, and on several top 100 lists, including Fairy Tale, YA Fairy Tale, LGBT Fantasy, Teen and YA girls and Women and Teen and YA Family.
Jenna and I discussed creativity in lockdown, how writers have been changed by the pandemic, making the most of our writing life—it was really a great discussion. Also we talked about writing in close third, rotating point of view, and what it’s like when your characters have a mind of their own!

Jenna is a great interviewer who made me feel right at home. If you love learning the story behind the story, watch and listen to Listening to the Voices in Our Heads. You’ll learn more about the World of Story, and we talk a lot about Sophie, Jamie, Tickey-Ding… and how I wound up writing the first book of The Chronicles of Story from bed while recovering from COVID in March 2020 as New York City closed down around me.
And while you’re on YouTube, don’t forget to check out the Lost Princess of Story book trailer:
