Bookshop Interview with Author Ismée Williams (Episode #101)

1/13/2021

0 Comments

 
In this week’s episode of The Bookshop at the End of the Internet, author Ismée Williams discusses her latest contemporary young adult novel, This Train is Being Held. The inspiration for this book came from a ride on the NYC subway, the same subway line that she took every day to go to work at the hospital where she was a pediatric cardiologist. Ismée knew she wanted to write a romance set in NYC with characters of Latinx identity, and inspiration for such a story arrived by subway train. This Train is Being Held is a slice of NYC life, and it is ultimately a story about expectations--about who you are versus what your family, friends and society expect you to be. In this episode, Ismée discusses her goal of writing hopeful stories, how being put on bed rest with her third child launched her writing career, and an unexpected career highlight when she discovered readers of her books were creating fan art of her characters.
