Synopsis
What makes a successful Author? Is it the number of book-sales, notoriety or is it a bit more complicated than that?
In this episode, Ben Monro-Davies speaks to the best-selling thriller author CL Taylor, about the challenges of building ‘brand recognition’ as an author, especially as the publishing space becomes increasingly crowded with celebrity and influencer authors.
She talks about being a female writer in the thriller genre, shifting the narrative in a genre where women have traditionally been accessories to the plot and giving agency back to the female characters in her stories.
