In this final installment of my talk with Lisa See–bestselling author of so! many! beloved books, including “Lady Tan's Circle of Women” and “The Island of Sea Women’’--we find out what Lisa is currently working on bringing into existence and what she knows at this moment about where her personal through line is leading her next.

- The daily habit she picked up from her mother (I totally want to steal this)

- The change she and her husband are in the process of making

- A really cool vantage on seeking to create generational memories as a grandparent

- The book that made her get out of bed and go to another room so she could finish it
