I was delighted to be a guest on the Authors Talking Bookish Podcast with hosts Donna Norman Carbone and Hope Gibbs Cummiskey, who are also my publishing “sisters” with Red Adept Publishing. They are fantastic hosts! I listen to every episode and love how much information they share and their fabulous rapport with each other.

In this episode, we discussed the significance of my Italian American culture and how it influenced my novel, LGBTQ rights and family structures, characters’ point of view, showing vs. telling in fiction, and what I learned the hard way on this debut novelist journey.
