Listen here to our newest podcast with Maggie Giles (The Things We Lost, Rising Action, April 2022). We discuss how her book’s concept is a twist on the Sliding Doors trope of “what if our lives had gone differently” and took her seven years to write, how she took a chance and signed with a novice publisher as their very first author, and how it’s imperative that writers discuss with their significant other that writing is not a hobby, but a job and a passion and requires us to devote time to it like any other goal we want to achieve.
Maggie Giles is a Canadian author who is usually daydreaming about fictional characters. Always looking for a new creative outlet, Maggie dove into writing a novel head first. She has been a member of the Women's Fiction Writers Association since 2014 where she works as their Social Media Director. She lives in Collingwood. The Things We Lost is her first novel. Her second, Twisted, will be releasing with Rising Action September 19, 2023.
