In this episode of Confessions of a Debut Novelist, I’m talking to Alice Slater about her thriller Death of a Bookseller. In this episode we discuss how she created separate playlists, played movies in the background as she wrote and used different vocabulary lists to create the distinct narrative voices in her novel, why after years of tinkering she was able to finish the novel in a month and why she loves BookTok.
