The Story Will Save You
In these usually-bite-sized episodes, we explore the nuances of writing and publishing from the perspective of authors, agents, editors, and those who haven’t quite yet broken in—and how, at the end of the day, it’s the art of storytelling that’ll save us (or obliterate our sanity into dust … it’s a coin flip).
Hosted by Pipeline Artists' Ciara Duggan, Jeanne Veillette Bowerman and Matthew Joseph Misetich.
The Story Will Save You
Nancy Doyne: From Screenwriter to Novelist
It was a pure delight to speak with Nancy Doyne, screenwriter of What Maisie Knew—an insightful character film, starring Julianne Moore. Now, Nancy's debut novel, Ten Swamps, will be out on November 25th (published by Pointed Leaf Press).
We dive into writing the topic of childhood trauma, and real-life stories, as well as her transition from writing for film to writing novels.
Pre-order Ten Swamps.
