In this episode of Confessions of a Debut Novelist, I’m talking to Ronali Collings about her commercial novel Love & Other Dramas. In this episode we discuss how she’d given up writing until Bernardine Evaristo inspired her, diversity in genre fiction and challenging stereotypes across the board, and how important it is to remember that publishing a novel is about collaboration with your team and not just a lone struggle.Confessions of a Debut Novelist Bookshop*Buy Love & Other Dramas: https://amzn.to/3zyurWqFollow Ronali on Twitter: @RonaliCollingshttps://www.ronalicollings.uk/https://womensprizeforfiction.co.uk/features/for-writers/writers-toolkit/ronali-collings-its-never-too-late-to-follow-your-dreamsFollow Chloe on Twitter: @clotimmsBuy Chloe's debut novel The Seawomen: https://linktr.ee/chloetimmschloetimms.co.uk *affiliate link - if you buy books linked to the Bookshop.org site, I may earn a commission.
