It's the episode we've all been waiting for! Today I'm so honoured to feature an interview with the inimitable Bianca Marias about her new book, THE WITCHES OF MOONSHYNE MANOR, out today! We cover so many topics, such as:

the premise and inspiration behind TWOMM
writing in multiple genres—and why
her unique writing process with TWOMM and her agent’s feedback
being the right kind of ally and championing relevant social issues in the right way by getting sensitivity readers
calibrating your manuscript according to readers’ reactions in a collaborative process of writing
her transition to Cece Lyra as her agent
knowing when to reveal information in your story
how to properly introduce a huge ensemble cast
worldbuilding tips and tricks to make your story and characters believable
a special article written for Harper Collins about her characters (that's also out today!)
what she’s working on next
what her author goals are
her teaching plans
helping others edit their own work and seeing stories come alive
the most underestimated (and probably the most important!) piece of advice for writers

So much to cover! I also talk a little bit about epistolary content in fiction writing.
