Welcome to another LEGENDARY episode! Our Legendaries are special guests that are an expert within their area of storytelling. Samantha M. Bailey is the USA TODAY and #1 nationally bestselling author of WOMAN ON THE EDGE, which has sold in eleven countries to date, and the instant #1 national bestseller, WATCH OUT FOR HER. She is also a journalist and freelance editor; her work has appeared in NOW Magazine, The Village Post, The Thrill Begins, and The Crime Hub, among other publications. Samantha lives in Toronto, where she can usually be found tapping away at her computer or curled up on her couch with a book. In this episode you'll hear about: Axes and why you should throw them. How your writing community can be your family (minus the drama). Gabi and Sam get real about their heights and own who they are. Sam inspires us with her never-give-up-on-your-dreams magic spark. Sam's approach of following your gut and having hope without expectations. Writing dark stories. The importance of leaving your mind and entering the real world sometimes (even when you don't want to). Death by thriller versus death by fantasy (and whether you should send your enemies to Sam's books or Courtney's). We discover Courtney's talent for creating taglines on the fly. Sam's existential crisis with chiropractors. Special mentions include Jennie Shaw; Jami Lynn Hendricks; The White Lotus; Novelist as a Vocation (Murakami); Sam and Gabi fan-girling over the wisdom of Sheena Kamal.

Rebecca and Tara are thrilled to chat with Sheena Kamal, whose bestselling debut The Lost Ones won her a Kobo Emerging Writer Prize, a Strand Critics Award, and Macavity Award for Best First Novel. The sequel It All Falls Down has been called “a stunning, emotionally resonant thriller” in its Kirkus-starred review. No Going Back and her first YA novel Fight Like A Girl were released in 2020. According to her website, The Lost Ones is a dark, compulsively readable psychological suspense debut, the first in a new series featuring the brilliant, fearless, chaotic, and deeply flawed Nora Watts—a character as heartbreakingly troubled, emotionally complex, and irresistibly compelling as Stieg Larsson's Lisbeth Salander and Jo Nesbø's Harry Hole.
