[Dolen Perkins-Valdez: What’s coming up]: Thinking carefully about how to use time more wisely Ep 1229

In this final installment of my interview with Dolan Perkins Valdez, the New York Times bestselling author of “Wench,” “Bomb,” “Take My Hand,” and most recently, Happyland, we get a peek at where her personal throughline is leading her next and hear her answers to my fast final five questions about what she’s currently reading, listening to, and dreaming of eating.
We covered:
The visual artists who are currently inspiring her, some living, some dead
Her favorite historical fiction authors
The AMAZING sounding historical fiction writers conference that cemented her path as a historical fiction author
How she’s re-thinking how she spends her time now that her older daughter is going off to college
The romance novel she stayed up too late reading and the Netflix series about high school girls she watched with her daughter
The music she listens to when her energy flags
