An Intriguing and informative pulling back of the curtain

I love talking about craft, and love hearing authors talk in depth about their processes. Getting to hear authors discussing the ins and outs together feels less Interview and more like I’m sitting at the table drinking a glass of wine with them, getting info they might not share in a more structured interview. Definitely recommend for authors or readers who are interested in a behind the scenes look!
