In this second part of my conversation with Donna Russo, author of “Vincent's Women: the Untold Story of the Loves of Vincent van Gogh, as well as 10 other award winning and internationally best selling historical novels, we explore the thoughts, ideas, and attitudes that influence her work.

We talked about:

Why the time period just before your book comes out is the most nerve-wracking, “like walking out naked and the world gets to comment”

The thrill of being in the same room as a group of your readers

How she takes her mind off the anxiety that comes pre-book release

Her biggest fears as a writer

Why being 66 is an asset to her writing

Her best advice for young writers

How historical fiction reminds us that there are always multiple points of view to every story
