Page Turners with The Nile

In this episode, John sits down with Bestselling author of Sorrow and Bliss, Meg Mason. Meg shares details into her writing process (which often involved the discarding of full novels), some of the themes involved in her new novel Sophie, Standing There and how she convinced Elizabeth Strout to feature as a named character in the book.

John and Meg walk through their late in life journeys into reading, and spend a little bit of time nerding out over literature, Middlemarch, and the occasional exclusive nature of the literary world.
