Writers Talking: Recent Episodes

Anjanette Fennell

The podcast that shares the writerly convos that writers have when no one is listening (even if they are listening) - looking to demystify the writerly process, share the inner thoughts that don't always align with the outer successes and as much inspo as possible without worrying about sticking to script or filtering for trending content. We aim to deliver REAL writerly convos in about 45 minutes, so you can feel inspired to keep going on your own writerly path! We'd love for you to follow and share our Writers Talking convos with your friends and writerly network! https://plus.acast.com/s/writers-talking.

Tricia Stringer joins us again hot off celebrating 30,000 copies sold of The Road Trip — and just months out from the October release of her next book, The Paradise Resort. In this episode, Tricia talks about how Road Trip favorites Kathleen and Omar found their way into the new story, and how a completely unplanned character, the irrepressible Beatrice, showed up around 20,000 words in and reshaped the whole book. We dig into what actually changes (and doesn't) about writing your tenth book versus your first, why Tricia writes toward “happy for now” endings rather than neat resolutions, and get into a wide-ranging conversation about AI, authorship, and what makes human-written fiction irreplaceable.

Fleur McDonald is one of Australia's most prolific crime writers... and she's the first to admit she has absolutely no idea how she does it. In this conversation, Fleur returns to chat about The Witness, the third instalment in her Kalgoorlie series (after The Prospect and The Missing), a book that deliberately flips the script: you might figure out who did it halfway through, but the real tension is whether anyone gets out safely.

Anj and Fleur dig into what it takes to keep a series fresh when you're staring down book 27, why Kalgoorlie became Fleur's answer to an Australian version of Midsomer, and how setting can be just as gripping a character as any detective. They also get refreshingly honest about the chaos behind the craft - the editing process that's become more intense than ever, writing and editing two books simultaneously, a pregnancy timeline blunder, and a new experiment where Fleur submits chapters one at a time to her publisher in a bid to tighten the creative chaos. Plus: why a typo in a published book might actually be something to celebrate.

Kathryn Heyman is an actor, playwright, performance poet, novelist, and director of the Australian Writers' Mentoring Program. Her new novel Circle of Wonders (HarperCollins) is unlike anything she's written before. In this winding, generous conversation, Kathryn takes us inside what she describes as the "beautiful grapple" of writing this book about Roni Bloom, a charismatic woman at the end of her life who has, by her own reckoning, made a mess of things. The novel gathers the women in Roni's orbit to help her live a good death...even if not all are convinced she earned it with a good life.

We talk about her intentional structure of this story alongside the muddier, more mysterious work of finding it on the page. Kathryn pushes back on the old idea that the novel is the realm of the intellect, making the case for fiction as the territory of feeling, and explains why she wanted to write something AI couldn't write! We also get into the craft questions she fields as a mentor: protecting creative energy through building real boundaries, the false binary of plotter vs. pantser, why "the facts are not always the same as the truth," and her dance teacher in Scotland, who taught her that encouragement does what shame never can.

This is a conversation for readers, writers, and anyone interested in what it means to sit, even briefly, in our "messy and magnificent mortality."

Amra Pajalic and I had so much more to chat about, so we continued our conversation!

Some of the larger topics we cover in this second part include:

Creating from passion rather than market pressure

A big throughline is choosing creative projects based on personal passion and integrity, not trends, algorithms, or sales expectations. We talk about following curiosity across genres, letting reading habits shape writing, and resisting the pressure to “write to market” in favour of work that feels meaningful and sustaining.

Midlife creativity: confidence, permission, and letting go

We also spend a significant time on how midlife brings less need for validation, more self-trust, and greater freedom to create without shame or apology. Amra shares about letting go of frantic energy, external approval, and the fear of judgment, and embracing creative work as self-expression rather than performance.

The long game of creative practice (process over outcome)

We repeatedly return to the idea that meaningful creative work requires time, repetition, patience, and release. We also highlight burnout, false starts, undercooked drafts, learning by doing, stepping away from projects, and trusting that clarity often comes through continuation rather than force.

Writing as learning, healing, and identity evolution

Another important concept we both speak to is writing as a vehicle for growth and transformation—from working through trauma, to shifting genres as life stages change, to reframing jealousy as a signal of unlived creativity. Writing is not just valued as output, but as a way of understanding oneself and one’s evolving voice.

Welcome to Writers Talking 2026!!

I was thrilled to start the year with a fascinating conversation with author Amra Pajalic! In fact, we had so much to chat about that we decided to split it over 2 eps!!

In this first episode, we chatted about:

Writing fiction grounded in real historical trauma

We discuss the responsibility and ethical weight of fictionalising real events, particularly the Bosnian War and the Srebrenica genocide, and how to honour survivor experiences while still telling a compelling story.

Transforming academic research into a novel

A major thread is how the book emerged from a PhD project, the tension between historical research and storytelling, and the process of condensing vast research into an accessible narrative.

Blending crime fiction with historical reality

We explore why the crime genre was chosen as a framework, how a murder mystery can exist within a war setting, and how genre expectations allow readers to engage with darker material.

Identity, displacement, and inherited trauma

The conversation moves into personal and intergenerational experiences of migration, identity, ethnic division, and how political power fractures communities, both historically and in the present day.

So good!! We hope you got a lot out of our convo today...and hope you check back in for the second part of our convo tomorrow!

Our final episode of 2025 is one I have been waiting for... A conversation with two of my favourite Australian authors, Angie Faye Martin and Alli Parker!!

This episode gave us an opportunity (thanks to the fabulous suggestion from Angie) to dive into how each of their books was inspired by their culture and their family's stories. Though their novels are pretty different on the surface in terms of genre, they share some common motivations. Angie and Alli generously opened up about the challenge of balancing truth and fiction, especially when dealing with tough topics like racism and historical events. They discuss how they approached research, the editorial process, language choices, and how they try to keep their stories authentic without making them too heavy or sanitised. They even reveal some personal stuff about how they cope with the intense parts of writing. It was a brilliant reminder about why fiction is such a powerful way to connect and learn.

I hope you love this episode as much as I did!

We started the year sharing a convo with Kate Horan and we've bookened with another! Well, almost, there's one more Writer's Talking episode coming next week as we farewell 2025.

This conversation with Kate, chatting about her sophomore novel (or is it...) and what she's learnt through the process of publishing again with her supportive team at HQ Australia. We unpacked some of the high-level (no spoilers!) plot drivers, how she approached her writing of this story, the patterns she's discovering and, what I really wanted her to share with listeners, the way she's approached 'platform building'...a message for both writers AND readers. We'll definitely be having Kate on the pod again soon!!

Get your hands on her new thriller, ON THE EDGE at the end of the month!!

I was beyond excited to chat this week with A. Rushby (aka Allison Rushby), author of Slashed Beauties as I had the pleasure of receiving an early copy to review. Sold into mutliple markets and eagerly awaited, Allison's book was pitched as gothic feminist body horror. The concept itself was intriguing (but I'll let you hear directly from Allison about the genisis of the concept) and I was even more keen to dive into things with her about how she balances her disparate writerly projects.

As an author of more than 30 books, Allison's used mutliple pseudonyms and writes for every age and stage, from junior through adult fiction. She shared some absolute gold in terms of staying the writerly path, what to prioritise as a working author, how she manages her plotter process and so much more! If I could bold-type audio, I would in several sections of our convo as we are in staunch agreement about so many aspects of the creative and practical parts of the publishing journey. Please, if you're an author at any stage, this is the episode to listen to: for inspiration or motivation!!

Grab your copy of Slashed Beauties (in Australia, the US, UK and India) now!

This week's convo with Alina Bellchambers was fascinating! If you've been on social media or in bookshops in the past year (or more!), you'll KNOW that the love for Fantasty & Romantasy books has reached peak levels and I was lucky enough to be introduced to this bright new voice in the Australian market.

A prolific writer who was raised in her family's bookshop, Alina has had a connection to story for a long time and it shows! In our conversation, she shares her path from writing for herself and for escape to writing for an audience. As a self-confessed plotter, she talked about the balance of planning with creative discovery, how she immerses herself in story to stay connected to her characters and the worlds she builds in her fantasy series as well as the other genres that she loves.

If you've not yet picked up a copy of the first book in her compelling fantasy duology, The Order of Masks, get to it! And then grab the second book, The Weight of Crowns, that starts off with a bang and doesn't slow down.

Are you an author who struggles to pinpoint your genre? Or maybe a reader who loves stories that blend genres in unexpected ways? You'll love this week's episode where I chat with Dmetri Kakmi about his compelling new book, The Woman in the Well.

Having written in different genres, Dmetri shares about how he leaves the genre designation to the publishers and the importance of bringing truth to every project, fiction or non. I was so impressed with the way he managed to weave the atmosphere of several different genres into a compelling narrative that reflected what he personally enjoys reading and watching. I appreciated hearing about how he worked with his characters in this novel and the ways it morphed and deepened as part of the editorial process. We also spoke about ways to bring the concept of 'own voices' to stories where the character/s are not a like-for-like expression of the writer and more.

A bit more about The Woman in the Well:

This is a brilliant work of gothic literary fiction set against the stark backdrop of the Central Australian desert and has been described by one editor as ‘an astonishing mix of literary horror and folklore.’ Themes among others include: identity, diversity, cross culture, sexual orientation, Australian immigrants, Indigenous Australians.

IFWG Publishing says:

“This is a special work. It is among the select few of our novels that beautifully bridges between literary and speculative fiction. Kakmi is an insightful artist and his eyes catch images and concepts and relates them to his life’s experiences. This work draws from his childhood, finding meaning in life, the place where he can feel comfortable, as does the protagonist of The Woman in the Well. Most notably – and certainly what initially drew us to the book in the first place – is the superimposition of his multicultural background (a ‘stranger in a strange land’) with many of the characters in his work. It’s about fitting, in every sense of the word. This is a novel that we are proud of publishing and we believe it will be critically and commercially successful. I certainly hope that you, the reader, will join in on the celebration of Kakmi’s masterpiece by reading it.”

I was SO excited to read this thrilling debut from the moment I heard it was being published June 2025!! Angie Faye Martin was kind enough to join me on the podcast to share all about her debut novel. She opens up about how long she worked on the manuscript, what her plotting approach looks like, the best advice she got from early industry mentoring and so much more.

Let me know... would you love a panel interview with Angie and a couple of other authors who write with dual timelines and highlight cultural dynamics that aren't explored often enough? Personally, I find it so amazing to see how these writers manage their research to ensure they weave underrepresented facts into an authentic and moving narrative!

In the meantime, get your hands on this bestseller and find out more about Angie here:

https://www.instagram.com/angie_faye_martin/

'A page-turner with purpose. Refreshing, surprising, and propulsive. Angie Faye Martin is a name to watch.' Tracey Lien, author of All That's Left Unsaid

'Melaleuca is rich with authenticity and heart. Angie Faye Martin skillfully paints a picture of outback Queensland so that the scents, sounds and heat become a physical experience for the reader.' Laura McCluskey, author of The Wolf Tree

'Atmospheric and blistering. Melaleuca will leave you wanting more. What a remarkable debut.' Fleur McDonald, author of The Prospect

'A fresh, authentic perspective to the much-loved genre of the Australian outback thriller. Compelling, thought-provoking and twisty, Melaleuca is both a gripping, tightly plotted mystery and an unflinching exploration of the dark underbelly of institutionalised racism and corruption in Australia.' Kate Horan, author of The Inheritance

'This intense, heart-wrenching and beautifully written novel introduces a bold, and important voice in Australian crime fiction. Set in a small, outback Queensland town, it features the resilient, courageous, and marvelously flawed Aboriginal detective, Renee Taylor. An atmospheric, compulsive read that I defy you to put down.' Karen Brooks, author of The Good Wife of Bath

'Powerful First Nations crime noir that interrogates law enforcement and how it intersects with Indigenous victims. Melaleuca is a compelling exploration of a police officer caught between two worlds, small-town complicity and justice long overdue.' Dinuka McKenzie, author of The Torrent

'Angie Faye Martin brings an important new voice to Australia's rich rural crime tradition. With a gutsy First Nations heroine, an atmospheric setting and a shocking crime that exposes a small town's prejudices, this is a book that deserves a large and enthusiastic audience.' Cassie Hamer, author of The Stranger at the Table

“You put yourself in those shoes as much as you can, in that body and that skin. And when I write scene by scene, at the top of each scene, I do write the emotion I am trying to convey.” - Nanda Reddy

During this week's writerly convo, I felt as if we just got started! Debut author Nanda Reddy has written a totally compelling, timely and heartwrenching-but-ultimately-hopeful story, A Girl Within a Girl Within a Girl. An instant USA Today bestseller and Apple Books Best Book of March, this is a novel that I can't recommend highly enough (and clearly I'm not alone)!!

She shared so much about her process... how she intentionally injects emotion into each scene, her appreciation of beautitful writing (and how it trumps spoilers), the way she used alpha and beta readers to help polish her manuscript before submission, the story of how she landed her agent and so much more!

This week I had the pleasure of chatting with DG Rampton, the fabulous author of highly successful Regency romances (plus one contemporary rom-com!) which have hit a collective 100k+ sales!

"As soon as I started to take myself seriously and my job (as a writer) seriously, other people started doing the same!" - DG Rampton

That brilliant quote came early on in the conversation and is, I think, something that all writers should note, but we also dove into: how she creates her own writing deadlines, the things shes learnt about editing, the benefits of taking ownership of different aspects of the publishing process and how she keeps herself connected to the stories she wants to write.

This week's talk is so important - not just for readers and writers, but for all of us, our friends, family, sisters, daughters, mums, neighbours...

Emma and Kat get into why bringing serious topics into pop culture is so vital, how the messaging is an important aspect of changing culture and what we might do if we recognise ourselves or our loved ones in the dynamic that is shared so truthfully in Emma's latest novel, Pictures of You!!

A review from IG (@karin.heartwell) of the book:

Pictures of You is the latest book by Canberra author @emmagreyauthor and it is a must-read.

Emma has tackled and mastered the topic of coercive control and emotional abuse in relationships while also giving readers hope that healthy relationships are possible, not just toxic ones.

It is a difficult read for me as it is a bit too close to home, having escaped a toxic relationship full of domestic violence. I have yet to experience a healthy relationship and while that seems way out of reach at times, Emma's writing gives me (and others, too) hope.

We must talk about abuse, every day, especially to boys growing up right now.

Things are changing but only so slowly.

More than 80 women have been killed in Australia this year alone due to domestic violence.

Men are still in positions of power where they get to abuse, hate and kill us and apparently, no one ever saw it coming because he has always been 'such a good bloke’.

Enough with this truth avoidance!

We must bring on change, in big and small ways. One way is to read Emma's book and talk about it with the boys and men in your life.

Books have always had the power to change the world for the better, and Pictures of You is no different.

Thank you, Emma, for this book.

From her Australian book launch in January to a spectacular US launch in November, Emma shares her takeaways from all the excitement (that's still growing!) and challenge of travelling to promote a deeply personal story. On a personal note from my end, it has been beautiful to watch so many readers connect with her writerly voice and heart. We talk about the highlights of her US tour, and those things she might try to tweak next time.

Haven't got your hands on a copy of The Last Love Note yet?!! Check out all things Emma here:

If you love to read fictionalised history, I think you're going to love today's convo! Angie Elita Newell has written one of the most ambitious novels I've read in a long time. Not only does she manage to draw readers in with multiple POVs and timelines, but she also provides empathetic yet realistic characters who bridge the gaps between the history we've been taught and the reality so many other people lived.

This week's conversation with Steph Vizard felt fabulously on brand with the themes in her book!

Steph’s debut novel, The Love Contract, won the Banjo Prize for fiction. and we discussed everything from how she managed the time to write while on maternity leave to the similarities between her 'day job' and her practice as a writer. We were in total agreement about what makes a swoon-worthy leading man and how looking more closely at societal expectations (and making the needed shifts) can help men AND women navigate family life and work life.

If you have wondered about swapping between script writing and novel writing (or have already given it a go) you're going to love today's episode!

Alli Parker is not only an incredibly experienced screen editor and coordinator, but she's now written an incredibly powerful novelisation of her own family's experience - a historical fiction story about Australia's first war bride from Japan. Alli generously shares her experience in choosing to fictionalise versus strict biography, how to manage editorial notes, moving past your own creative hurdles and more. We'll definitely be getting Alli back to share more behind-the-scenes insights as it felt like we just got started!

This week we got to chat with the ever-engaging Lorissa Rinehart and Tracy Dawson to catch up on what they've been up to since our last convo!

We dove into the beauty of modern research options, the democratisation of so many aspects of writing as an industry, ways we should be wary of AI (and the ways we shouldn't fret too much over), the HUGE win writers in the US are celebrating and SO. MUCH, MORE. Safe to say, we'll be fitting in another chat again soon.

"An entertaining, astonishing collection celebrating the diverse trailblazers who disguised themselves as men...Let Me Be Frank is a witty, sometimes infuriating, wholly inspiring look at the lengths that women had to go to." - Buzzfeed

“A smart, funny journey through history that introduces us to the rule breakers who made history worth traveling through. So well-written.”—Patton Oswalt

“Tracy has such a gift for storytelling and making history leap off the page. Her book has a wit that suggests it was written by a man since everyone knows women aren't this funny.”—Kay Cannon

Lorissa Rinehart

https://lorissarinehart.com/

https://www.instagram.com/lorissa_rinehart

Lorissa's book, First to the Front, is out NOW and getting huge buzz...

"Jam-packed with colorful details and incisive character sketches, this is a vivid reappraisal of a pioneering journalist." ―Publishers Weekly (starred review)

"An astonishing story...exquisite. After reading this enthralling book, now, when someone asks, 'What three people from history would you have over for dinner?' My first choice is easy: At the head of the table is the incomparable Dickey Chapelle. Next to her, the other two guests will be fighting for table scraps." ―Buddy Levy, author of Empire of Ice and Stone: The Disastrous and Heroic Voyage of the Karluk

"An extraordinary story, told with cinematic flair. Chapelle's groundbreaking career should be studied in every journalism school in the country. Rinehart's vivid prose makes us feel like we're right there with her through all her trials and triumphs." ―J. Martin Daughtry, author of Listening to War: Sound, Music, Trauma, and Survival in Wartime Iraq

This week's convo sees us back to one of our fabulous panels with Nina Campbell, Emma Grey and Rachael Morgan, talking all about the dissonance between our expectations vs reality when it comes to our writerly life.

Often online, in social and mainstream media we can see all of the exciting aspects of an author's life, but what does it actually look and feel like behind the scenes? Does the experience match up to our expectations? I loved how open and honest all three of these writers have been about the peaks and troughs (and enormous levels of 'efforting') that are going on between these snapshot moments.

This week's chat with the author of Why You Feel the Way You Do, Reneau Peurifoy, was filled with so much great info for every type of writer! We talked about how he shifted his knowledge from individual sessions, to an old-school cassette-delivered course, to an incredibly successful book called Anxiety, Phobias & Panic: Taking Charge and Conquering Fear.

Reneautalks openly about the importance of learning to take good critical feedback to ensure your writing will make sense to your ideal readers. He shares his process, how he gets good beta readers and a bit about his own experience in the subjective nature of feedback from traditional publishing.

This newest book by Reneau Peurifoy can help writers, not only with their own core emotional patterns day-to-day, but in creating characters who resonate deeply with readers!

What a great, truth-filled convo! Louisa Deasey, two time published memoir author, joined me to chat through her experience in getting her first memoir published.

Not only did we cover her incredible (and really kind of shocking!) first publisher meeting along with what she's learnt along the way about how literary memoir is often misunderstood, what it takes to really write a compelling memoir as a debut author and we dive into so much more. This ep was already so chock full of great stories, we decided to make it Part 1 of 2, so stay tuned!!

This week we welcome back the lovely Monique Mulligan, author of Wildflower, which is set for re-release worldwide with Bloodhound Books on 10 August.

As always, a vulnerable writerly convo where we chatted about the serious themes in her book, letting a younger voice highlight some of the unexpected ramifications on family and community where domestic violence is seen & heard, but not addressed and so much more!

Monique shared her experience with coming back to her own writing after feeling disconnected (for a longer time than she'd expected) and we both chat about ways to move through the ebbs and flows that all writers can expect to experience. I think more emerging authors need to hear the truth of what working writers (all) go through as they navigate their creative expression in the real world!

If you have a preference for novels and don't understand the appeal of biography and history, THIS is the episode for you! Not only are both of today's writers brilliant, they are both women who are passionate about uncovering the real stories that have been hidden in history for far too long.

Lorissa joins us again to talk with Tracy Dawson about how they each came to their book writing process, how they sold their first manuscripts and the path toward selling their second. They each share some surprises they've learnt along the way as well as their excitement about bringing MORE readers to a genre that may be overlooked by female readers. This was a definitely a convo that will have a part 2, so jump in to hear what these fabulous writers shared...

Wow - what an incredible convo this week with the incomprable Zoë Coyle, whose most recent novel, The Dangers of Female Provocation, had me on the edge of my seat! (and looking up words on Dictionary.com LOL)!!

We talk all things surrender, finding the spiritual in our work, the beauty of getting to live vicariously through some characters and so, so much more. I loved hearing about her approach to writing (and starting on a new project as soon as the last has finished, thanks to unprompted-but-insightful advice she once received) and what her first two novels are really about. Without a doubt, if you think you know where the story's going after the first few chapters...you're probably wrong!

You'll definitely want to get your hands on her book, so find out more about Zoë here-

Have you ever wondered if you novel idea would be better written as a screenplay first? Or maybe you're used to the format of screen writing and wonder if you should transition your story into novel form as well?

This week we dive into a convo about the similarities and differences between long form novel writing and the snappier sort of writing expected when writing for screen. Rachael shares her experience in writing both - and how she works bouncing between the two! I absolutely loved her insight (and make sure to hold out for her mic drop moment near the end of the ep) ;)
