Bethany Clift’s debut novel The Last One at the Party is hilarious, moving, cathartic and set in an utterly terrifying pandemic. She tells us how writing and reading horror is great for mental health, how seeing E.T. at an impressionable age inspired her, and how writing a novel with only one living character allowed her to dig deeper than ever before.   This episode has an accompanying Deep Dive episode with Bethany and her husband Peter Handford where they tell us about the making of their indie horror movie Heretic. Deep Dives are exclusive to our Patreon and Academy members. To find out more: https://bestsellerexperiment.com/support
