312: Plot Twists, Surprises, and How to Keep Your Reader Guessing — Interview with Laura Hankin
Hey there word nerds!
Today, I have the pleasure of interviewing Laura Hankin.
Laura has written for McSweeney's and HuffPost, among other publications. The viral videos that she creates and stars in with her comedy duo, Feminarchy, have been featured in Now This, The New York Times, and Funny or Die. She has performed off-Broadway, acted on screen, and has sung to far too many babies.
Today we're talking about her new novel Happy and You Know It, which is all about the NYC fancy-moms playgroup scene.
In this episode Laura and I discuss:- How to keep readers guessing (in a good way!) throughout your book
- Her method for creating multiple points of view
- Why negative feedback can actually be a good thing
