This week we are joined by Peng Shepherd! Peng Shepherd is the nationally bestselling, award-winning author of All This and More, The Cartographers, and The Book of M.

Her novels have been acclaimed as a “Best Book of the Year” by the Washington Post, a “Best Book of the Summer” by the Today Show and NPR, and featured in the New York Times, the LA Times, and on Good Morning America, as well as a finalist for the LA Times Book Prize. Her work also has been translated into more than ten languages, and optioned for TV and film. Make sure to check her out!

In this episode, we discuss growing up in Phoenix, wanting to be a writer from a young age, being introverted, performing ballet, book tours, enjoying science fiction and fantasy, and so much more. You don’t want to miss our discussion about why Peng didn’t start writing until later in life. Give this episode a listen!
