Today I'm broadcasting across the pond in Sussex, England with New York Times bestselling author and screenwriter Jenny Lecoat, as we talk about her first novel 'The Girl From The Channel Islands', the story of a young Jewish girl living through the German occupation in the Channel Islands in 1940. Jenny discusses how growing up in the Channel Islands, her family history -  and her love of research - all contributed to the book; how her feature film 'Another Mother's Son' (available now on Amazon Prime) mirrors her own family's experiences during World War II; how she helps upcoming authors' with 'The Jenny Lecoat Award for Short Screenplays'; her first job as a standup comic in London, and why she finds a new home (and even pulling up wallpaper!) inspire to help write her next novel. Bring a cuppa along to the studio and join in!
