Listen "Amy Lynn Green Loves Unlikely Characters"
Episode Synopsis
Amy Lynn Green is a lifelong lover of books, history, and library cards. She joins Julie to talk about her new title, The Blackout Book Club, and shares her strategy for choosing unlikely characters for the story (like a woman who doesn't particularly like books who’s asked to serve as a librarian). Julie and Amy bond over their love of snail mail and stamps, and Amy also gets a chance to share what it was like to anonymously submit her first manuscript to the publisher she worked for at the time. Amy has an impressive collection of half-filled notebooks of research and uses a scattershot approach to writing when necessary, but she does it all with the goal of making something memorable. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.
