Jennifer Craven is the author of All That Shines and Whispers, a re-imagining of what happens after the credits roll on The Sound of Music. The book explores themes of betrayal, sacrifice, consequences, and redemption, set against the backdrop of Nazi-era Europe.

In this episode, we discuss her writing process, and:

  • That words have power and that we can use them for positive or negative purposes
  • How her book was inspired by The Sound of Music
  • And more

I would love to hear from you. Please visit my Contact Page and tell me about your writing challenges.
