Listen "Episode 67: Interview with Iris March"
Episode Synopsis
I am delighted to share a brand new episode of the Thriving Authors Podcast where I sat down with my friend Maureen Wise, pen name Iris March @searchingformysteries, to chat about her fantastic debut “succulent sleuth” cozy mystery novel THE BROKEN BRIDGE.
Discussed in this episode:
How she brought her passions for cozy mysteries, for plants, for sustainability and all of that into her writing and to her novels
The background behind her writing of The Broken Bridge
Her writing process and how she was able to get it out and not take years
How she kept herself accountable while writing
About Mauree, aka Iris: Iris March has a reputation for killing house plants and now she’s writing stories about people getting killed. Coincidence? Perhaps not. Iris has worked in the sustainability field her entire career and is usually either reading a book or is on a trail. She lives in Ohio with her husband, son, and three cats.
