Our featured story comes from author Pamela Skjolsvik. She always considered herself a non-fiction writer, trained to tell the truth, but then one day she discovered she likes to make things up and she's good at it. She's written a vampire novel called Forever 51 that she says is not your daughter's vampire story. She's funnier than her last name and she's open and direct in surprising ways. I've been asking authors and everyone else about their COVID pandemic experiences - the silver linings and the losses. Her experience took my breath away. I'll put more about her and her picture on the Desideratum Podcast website. Below are links to her website, an article CNN published by her in 2020, and her social media pages. Thanks for listening.
