Caitlin shares her writing process, which was influenced by her observations of the pandemic and the complexities of human relationships during crises. She also discusses juggling writing with motherhood and homeschooling her children, offering insights into her creative approach, which includes jotting down ideas in notebooks and writing in short, spontaneous sessions.Purchase on Bookshop: https://bit.ly/486kUnyShare, rate, & review the podcast, and follow Zibby on Instagram @zibbyowens!
