Caleb Azumah Nelson has carved out a lane for himself. He's an author, screenwriter and photographer who burst into the literary world with his debut novel Open Water in 2021, and has since won several awards and released his second book Small Worlds. What I loved the most about our conversation, is how Caleb articulates his creative writing process, love for words, and how music is a key component to making his work sing. But I won't ramble on, and will allow you to make up your own mind about this talented writer. Take at least one thing away from this episode.
