In the latest Lesbian Book Club podcast, I get to interview international smash-hit author Eliza Lentzski of ‘Winter Jacket’ and ‘Don’t Call Me Hero’ fame. Eliza discusses living in the Milwaukee and her love of cheese, her writing journey from fanfiction to No.1 best-seller, as well as the ongoing success of her Winter Jacket series and why she owes it all to Judy Blume and Jane Austen.
I also do a run-down of the Lesbian Romance charts, speak about appearing at this year’s LFest and Brighton Pride and finally, read from my upcoming novel, This London Love.
