Conversations with the authors we admire.
GrowthSpark Editorial conducts long form interviews exploring the writing journey, creative inspiration, publishing experience, character development, research process, future projects, and reading recommendations of the authors we feature.
The writing journey
How each author found their voice, the manuscripts that never made it out of the drawer, and the pivotal moment their work found its readers.
Creative inspiration
The books, films, cities, and quiet obsessions that fuel their imagination.
Publishing experience
What the road looked like, from first submission to bookstore shelf, and what they would do differently.
Character development
How characters take shape on the page, and the ones the author is still thinking about years later.
Research process
The libraries, interviews, and rabbit holes that give their fiction its foundation in fact.
Future projects
What is next, in as much detail as they are willing to share.
Reading recommendations
The books they press into every friend's hands, and the ones they wish more readers knew about.
