AUTHOR INTERVIEW: Ashley Winstead

<p>Kayla got to sit down with an author that she’s obsessed with, and one she’s spoken about on the pod: Ashley Winstead! The two get into all sorts of bookish things, including but not limited to: Ashley’s shift from writing thrillers to romance during the pandemic, pen names for writing in different genres, writing “messy” women (and what the even means), writing as therapy, writing about politics, Ashley’s own political and non-profit history, ROMANCE TROPES (swoon), a little sneak peek at what Ashley has coming next, and sooo much more. We hope you love this interview!
