Get Lit with Julia Whelan, author of "Thank You For Listening"

08/04/22 • 34 min

In this episode I’m joined by author, Award-winning audiobook narrator and actor, Julia Whelan, who wrote the new romance book, “Thank You For Listening".
I first heard of Julia when she narrated "Gone Girl" in 2012 - but she later went on to win multiple Audie Awards for her narrations of "Educated", "The Witness", "My Year of Rest and Relaxation" and so much more. Her debut romance novel, "My Oxford Year" is one of my favourite love stories I've ever read - so getting to chat with her about her prolific career is such a dream come true!!
This book is a true love letter to romance books in all its forms! First of all - the love story is between two romance audiobook narrators. Wrap your head around that!!! Second of all, there are SO MANY tropes in here - it's heaven. There's nothing like a romance book that pokes fun of romance books and that's a hill I'll die on.
I had the absolute best time connecting with Julia, and am so excited for her next potential story... which all of you who have read "Thank You For Listening" will be GUSHING OVER! Tune into this episode to find out what I'm talking about :)

Get Lit with Holly James, author of "Nothing But The Truth"

In this episode I’m joined by debut romance author, Holly James, who wrote the new women’s fiction/romance book, “Nothing But The Truth".

As a publicist approaching her 30s, I really resonated with many of the themes in this book - and was so excited to chat with Holly about how she came up with the idea (it’s definitely a play on Jim Carrey’s iconic movie “Liar Liar”), why it was so important for her to include the storylines about what it means to be a woman in business, especially in the post- #MeToo era, and so much more.

Also!! The touches of magic! So cute and different!

This was such a fun conversation and I cant wait for you to learn more about Holly and her writing process in this interview!
