Hi and welcome back to lolly's Secrets podcast! On this episode, I interview Oyinkan Braithwaite who is a published author that has won many awards for her book "My Sister The Serial Killer". Some of the key takeaways from the show on being a successful writer are as follows: 1. Once you have an idea, just start writing 2. Dialogue helps with setting the tone for the mood in each scene 3. When starting a story, start with a short story or a novella instead of a novel 4. Try prompts when brainstorming. They help to trigger inspiration 5. Every author needs a good agent. make sure to get one that is in sync with your genre If you want to know more about Oyinkan Braithwaite and connect with her, please see her website and social media below: Website: oyinkanbraithwaite.com Instagram: @OyinBraithwaite Facebook: facebook.com/oyinbraithwaite If you want to connect with me, follow me on Instagram: @lollys.secrets Don't forget to like, comment and subscribe!

You've heard Alice and Bethany gush about My Sister The Serial Killer by Oyinkan Braithwaite, now hear Bethany chat to Oyin herself about what inspired the character Ayoola, how she feels about that cover, and the charmed road to publication...

Meredith is on a leadership retreat this week, so Kaytee is joined by her friend Morgan Tallman to chat books this week. You’ll hear a “bookish moment of the week” from each host: busting out of a reading slump (and some tips), and a bookish resolution from a young family member. Next, we discuss what we are currently reading, and this week includes some fantasy, a funny thriller (is that a thing?), and a few non-fiction picks. This week’s deep dive is a conversation with Morgan about re-reading. Since Meredith and Kaytee rarely re-read, we are chatting with someone who really loves to re-read books about what she gets from those re-reads. Morgan talks about the books she loves re-reading as well as the frequency of her re-reads. As always, we finish up with A Book (yep, capitalized) that we’d like to press into every reader’s hands: a book to add depth to your Harry Potter love, and a sweeping historical novel with trigger warnings. As per usual, time-stamped show notes are below with references to every book and resource we mentioned in this episode.
