Authors Love Readers Podcast

British author J.F Penn has traveled the world in her study of religion and psychology. She brings these obsessions as well as a love for thrillers and an interest in the supernatural to her writing. Her fast-paced ARKANE thrillers weave together historical artifacts, global locations, and a hint of the supernatural. Described by readers as "Dan Brown meets Lara Croft." Joanna talks to host Patricia McLinn about using traveling at motivation for her books and how she spent many years as a reader before becoming an author. In Joanna's own words: “All readers are intelligent people, and they know books, they love books, and it intimidates them. And they think, 'I could never do that.' But the problem with being a reader is you're reading a finished product. SO the thing that kind of changed my life as a writer was realizing that there was a first draft.” [10:06]  You can find Joanna at her: Website Facebook or Twitter Thank you so much for listening.
