Guest: Alexandra Bracken
Marissa chats with Alexandra Bracken about her new urban fantasy - LORE - as well as keeping a wishlist of things that inspire you in books and stories and using those details as 'scene cookies' to reinvigorate your WIP; the subjectivity of readers' and editors' tastes and the dangers inherent in reading reviews; the importance of being able to deliver a great quick pitch for your book; and some details on Alex's daily writing ritual, which includes having a go-to song for getting you back into your story's world.
Books discussed in this episode can be purchased from your local independent bookstore or buy them online from the Happy Writer bookshop.org store (that benefits indie bookstores) at https://bookshop.org/shop/marissameyer
