Listen "Bethany Loveridge: Inside Harper Wells: Renegade Timeline Officer"
Episode Synopsis
Bethany Loveridge joins Totally Lit to talk about her debut middle-grade novel, Harper Wells: Renegade Timeline Officer — a time-travel adventure where a girl meets a young Edith Cowan and runs afoul of a timeline officer. She discusses the trilogy, the audiobook, and her publisher, Wombat Books.
The conversation covers Bethany’s long path to publication, the role of mentorships and critique groups, practical writing tips (read widely, start in the action, plot your story), the challenges of picture books, and writing about anxiety and historical figures. Plus upcoming launches, school visits and community work.
