Writing is Better with a Buddy


Listen Later

Stacy Bennett is a late-blooming author, currently living in the suburban wilds of New Jersey. Mixing her love of nature, psychology and contradictions, her stories tend toward interior conflicts blended with generous world-building. A classic author trope in many ways – cat lover, coffee drinker, and tending to talk too much to people who can't readily be seen – Stacy also prefers cozy get-togethers to parties, grilled cheese to filet mignon, B-movies to classics, pickup trucks to sporty coupes and jeans to dresses anytime.
