Kate Hope Day is the author of In the Quick, a novel about an ambitious young astronaut whose love affair threatens the rescue of a lost crew. “I read In the Quick with wonder at the deeply imaginative world Kate Hope Day created. Feminist and thrilling, this novel centers around a precocious, brilliant character named June. I happily followed June into deep space, but I would have followed her anywhere. What a wonderful story. I highly recommend this novel.” - Ann Napolitano, New York Times bestselling author of Dear EdwardIn this episode, we discuss her writing process, and:Changing your definition of a good writing dayWhat she does between 10pm and midnightLetting your brain think about your writing while you sleepAnd moreI would love to hear from you.
