How do you work through and process awful events that happen in your life? For today’s guest, author Liz Lazarus, she turns them into psychological suspense novels including her brand new book, Dawn Before Darkness. In our conversation, she shares her journey to becoming an author and the importance of educating while entertaining. She also talks about how she approaches multiple pursuits, recognizing and taking opportunities as they present themselves, the joy of writing characters, how spreadsheets organize her creativity, emotional management while writing, and perhaps the best writing tip I’ve ever heard. Whether you’re a fan of genre fiction, a writer looking for inspiration, or someone like me who lives in both of those worlds, Liz’s wisdom and enthusiasm for life is just what you need.
