Join guest host Erin Fabio and author Amy Bonnaffons as they discuss The Regrets. This is Ms. Bonnaffons' debut novel about love, life, and the complications of relationships. Featuring an underlying story about the afterlife, this book opened up a great discussion on our emotional availability in relationships, sex, the differences between generations on sexy, and oh did we mention sex. Fun and winding conversations with a new and introspective author.
We take a romp through Poland with best-selling thriller writer Steve Berry. We chat mutual dreaming and recurring nightmares with Colleen Oakley. Plus a love story between a Brooklyn girl and a ghost.
Author Amy Bonnaffons, whose debut novel is The Regrets (Little Brown). This week's Write the Book Prompt is to head over to the site Amy Bonnaffons co-founded, 7x7.la, and browse for inspiration. Offering "interdisciplinary collaboration, each 7×7 invites one visual artist and one writer to engage in a two-week creative conversation." Lots to enjoy, and surely lots of inspiration for new work there as well. Good luck with your work in the coming week, and tune in next week for another prompt or suggestion.
