Ep505 — Heather Morris — “Shut up and Listen!”
We celebrate seven years of the podcast with the amazing Heather Morris, author of The Tattooist of Auschwitz, which has sold over 6 million copies worldwide. She returns with a new novel, Sisters Under The Rising Sun, which transports the reader to the women in Japanese POW camps in WWII and is another incredibly powerful story. Heather talks about the role of listening in her work, creating fiction from reality, and what she learned from screenwriting.
In this episode, you will learn:
- Why Heather craves a personal connection in her stories
- How she works with a researcher
- And how one of the biggest-selling novels of the 21st century started with a conversation over coffee…
