#amwriting With Jess & Kj

Today, I'm so excited to talk to my friend, Rosa Kwon Easton, about her debut novel, White Mulberry. Rosa holds a very special place in my heart and my history because she was at the first ever workshop where I taught my Blueprint framework, which is a method of inquiry for getting a book out of your head and onto the page before you start to write. At that time, Rosa thought that she was writing a true story about three generations in her family. She was calling it a memoir. And now ten years later, that story is being published as a novel. In this discussion, we talk about that long development process and the profound switch from writing a true story to writing fiction and how Rosa navigated the whole thing. Find Rosa at: rosakwoneaston.com, @rosakwoneaston on Instagram, or at one of her upcoming events. Find out more about Jennie Nash’s Blueprint for a Book method here.
