EPISODE INFO:
Should you be writing characters first? 

Or maybe you should develop your plot? 

How do you write books with multiple timelines? Do you write them chronologically? Or linearly in relation to the thread of the story? 

Heather Levy is going to cover all this and more!

Plus, she struck up a really interesting debate and I’m curious about your take!

BIO:
Heather Levy is a born and bred Oklahoman and graduate of Oklahoma City University’s Red Earth MFA program for creative writing. The New York Times called her Anthony-nominated debut Walking Through Needles “a spellbinding novel at the nexus of power, desire, and abuse that portends a bright future” and the L.A. Times called it “a standout for its frank but sensitive exploration of trauma and desire.” Publisher’s Weekly says her thriller Hurt for Me “delivers both heat and heart.” Her novels focus on kink-positive stories centered around badass women. She lives in Oklahoma with her husband, two kids, and three murderous cats. Readers can follow her on X and IG @heatherllevy or on her website at www.heatherlevywriter.com
