Bookshop Interview with Author Donna Meredith (Episode #119)

In this week’s episode of The Bookshop at the End of the Internet, award-winning author Donna Meredith discusses her latest novel, Buried Seeds. It is the story of two women, a century apart, and both of them have had enough. In 2017, one woman takes over the duties of president of the local teacher’s union, while in 1903 her great-great-grandmother joins the women’s suffrage movement. Both women fight to control their own destiny and come to realize that advocating for causes they believe in often comes with great personal sacrifice. Buried Seeds, as with all of Donna’s books, contains strong yet flawed heroines who find courage and, in turn, find themselves. In this episode, Donna discusses her writing journey, how retiring from a 30-year career as an educator gave her the courage to write her first novel, and how the best writing advice she has ever received is to triangulate the senses (listen in to find out what that means!).
