Dear Lonely Writer is a show for all the lonely writers out there - before, during and especially after the book deal. Every week our host Eden Boudreau, author of CRYING WOLF: A Memoir, interviews bestselling authors from around the world about not just their writing process but the emotional labour that comes with creating, and how to navigate isolation, imposter syndrome and more.
On this week's episode, we talk with internationally bestselling author Karma Brown about her latest novel WHAT WILD WOMEN DO - the story of an aspiring contemporary screenwriter, a 1970s socialite-turned-feminist, and the camp in the woods that ties their stories together forever - as well some deep conversations about life, creating and complexities in our characters.

37 - Nathan Whitlock and Finding Your Way Back to The Story
Thanks for coming back Lonely Writers! Today I had the absolute pleasure of chatting with Nathan Whitlock, author of the dark, satiric novel LUMP.
LUMP is a dark comedy about marriage, motherhood, privilege, and power, about a woman whose attempt to escape crises in her health and marriage ends up causing only more chaos.
This episode is basically a love letter to Nathan’s wife, a talented writer in her own right and the many other female writers who have inspired much of his writing, but it’s also a deeply inspirational conversation about writing amid the deepest grief and finding your way back to the story.
Make sure to pick up a copy of LUMP if you haven’t already and you can stay connected with Nathan by following him on social or online at https://www.nathanwhitlock.ca/ (https://www.nathanwhitlock.ca/)
