My guest today is Kate Quinn, New York Times bestselling author and an icon in the historical fiction space.
Today we talk about:
writing what you're drawn to and if/when marketability goes into that decision
The Hero's Journey vs The Heroine's Journey for character development and plotting
how to draw the line between fact and fiction when writing about real life people or historical events
advice for both aspiring writers and writers who are a few books into their careers
and so much more.
I hope you enjoy the show!
