Know More Know Less The Rising Order - w/ author Claire Isenthal (ep#44)
I've been a consistent reader for most of my life, and the creative process of novel writing has always seemed fascinating. Creating a world, characters, places, motives, and an emotional resonation for the reader is like the grandest of magic tricks.
How can someone I don't know put images and sentences into my head that, in some cases, last a lifetime?! Magic!
In this episode, I had the pleasure of chatting with Claire Isenthal, whose debut book, a thriller, The Rising Order, is out now. Claire and I discuss:
- Her 7-year journey to getting her book published
- How meeting an ex-neonazi-skinhead helped inform her villain
- How we inherently treat boys differently than girls without knowing
- Needing to rewrite a bulk of her book to change the narration type
- Why choosing the right villain and motivation is crucial
I had such a great time chatting with Claire, and I hope you'll all run out and buy her new amazing book, THE RISING ORDER.
