Bookshop Interview with Author Catherine Raphael (Episode #166)

11/2/2022

0 Comments

 
In this week’s episode of The Bookshop at the End of the Internet, author Catherine Raphael discusses her new epic fantasy novel, Journey to the Heart Stone. A long-time fan of the genre, Catherine started writing Journey to the Heart Stone because she was frustrated with the skewed portrayal of women in most fantasy novels. They were either the damsel in distress or the evil, old crone. So, Catherine set out to build a world that showed the breadth of female power, and her main character is a thirty-seven-year old woman who must unite three warring tribes and restore peace…all while pregnant. Catherine’s own colorful background served her well when crafting her story. She’s been an improv actor, a storyteller, a metalsmith, and a jewelry designer. Listen in to learn how all of that eventually led to her becoming a published author. In this episode, I’ll chat with Catherine about her writing journey, why it took her so many years to eventually claim her space as a writer, and why she believes fantasy novels give people ways to feel hopeful.
