In this episode of The Conversation with Nadine Matheson, we welcome the multifaceted Ivy Ngeow a talented author, architect, and interior designer. Ivy shares her unique journey as a creative, exploring how her background in design influences her writing process. She discusses how storytelling has always been a part of her life, from entertaining her younger brothers with imaginative tales to challenging the narratives found in literature.

As Ivy delves into her experiences, she reflects on the struggles of finding her voice as a writer and the importance of perseverance in the face of rejection. With over 80 rejections for her first book, she emphasizes the significance of resilience and the need to view each piece of writing as a separate entity, much like a cake that evolves over time.

Ivy's candid insights and relatable anecdotes make this episode a treasure trove of inspiration for aspiring writers and fans of literary fiction alike.
