Celebrate National Read a Book Day with Big Blend Radio's "Toast to The Arts" Show as we chat with award-winning author S.L. Woeppel about her gripping new psychological thriller, "The Butcher and the Liar."

At the heart of this dark and haunting story is Daisy Bellon, a Chicago butcher who has worked hard to bury her father’s grisly past—until an anonymous letter forces her to confront family secrets, childhood trauma, and the ghostly reminders of what she witnessed as a child. When someone close to her is murdered in a chillingly familiar way, Daisy must finally decide whether to expose the truth or risk becoming the monster she fears.

In this conversation, S.L. Woeppel shares her evolution as a writer—from her rom-com debut "Flipping the Birdie" (a BookLife Prize finalist) to exploring the shadows of human nature in her latest novel. We discuss the duality of identity, the influence of childhood experiences, the impact of family legacies, and how creativity often grows out of both passion and pain.
