  • Summary

  • Irma and Karen chat about writers festivals they’ve recently attended, as well as the joys and challenges of being a panel moderator and interviewing other authors. Then Karen talks to JP Pomare about how he didn’t know he was writing crime until it was marketed that way, why his goal is to transcend the genre, how he’s managed to publish seven books in six years, why we’re so fascinated with crime fiction, how writing an Audible original taught him valuable lessons about writing, why research can be a trap and so he fact-checks instead, how he finds expert consultants, why an announcement over the loudspeaker at a library event was the lowest point of his career, and why he tried to break into a prison as research.
