On today’s 193rd episode of The Thriller Zone, host David Temple interviews author Bruce Borges about his latest book, Shades of Mercy.

They discuss the process of writing and the fear of not being able to recreate the success of previous books. They also touch on topics such as imposter syndrome and the importance of giving oneself permission to acknowledge their own talent.

The conversation then shifts to the experience of attending writer conferences and the value of connecting with other authors. Borges shares his secret sauce for creating genuine characters and discusses the challenges faced by the protagonist in his book, including a physical malady and the opioid epidemic.

The conversation concludes with Borges offering advice to writers, emphasizing the importance of believing in oneself and developing a writing habit.

As part of a new feature on The TZ, called Overtime, David shares his personal story about surviving prostate cancer, something that Bruce fears he may be facing. Temple goes on to share how he intends to release a non-fiction book about his cancer journey in the near future.
