Chapter 130: In Conversation with Meghan Nesmith

This week we are delighted to welcome debut author and fellow Bostonian, Meghan Nesmith. We talk about the joy of fan fiction, how One Direction reignited her zest for life, the querying process, the best Reddit threads for aspiring authors, how the idea for her book came to her, why she chose London as her setting, planning vs. pantsing, and the importance of supporting first-time authors. Meghan also shares her top books from her summer reading list, which includes Into the Blue by Emma Brodie, Homebound by Portia Elan, and Nerve Damage by Annakeara Stinson. We close by discussing our favorite indie bookstores in Boston, and our wish for more spaces to add coffee or wine bars for longer lingering.
