On this episode, Kristy Woodson Harvey & Kristin Harmel welcome preeminent journalist and royal biographer Omid Scobie and his National Book Award-winning co-author Robin Benway to discuss their much-anticipated novel, Royal Spin, in which they draw from their real world expertise to create an irresistibly entertaining story about a young American woman who takes a job at Buckingham Palace—where she finds herself tangled in a royal mess she might not be able to spin her way out of. Omid Scobie is a British journalist and NYT-bestselling author of Finding Freedom and Endgame, which have been published in more than 20 countries. He spent 12 years covering the royal beat for major outlets including ABC News, Good Morning America, and Harper's Bazaar. Scobie is co-creator, writer, and executive producer on the forthcoming TV adaptation of Royal Spin. Robin Benway is a National Book Award-winning and NYT-bestselling author of nine YA novels (Far from the Tree, Emmy & Oliver), which have been published in more than 25 countries. Her nonfiction work has appeared in the Los Angeles Times, Bustle, Elle, and more. Omid & Robin join us from their home base in LA to discuss their first co-written novel, Royal Spin, which Jasmine Guillory calls, “hugely entertaining and engaging” and “a fun, page-turner of a book!”
