Jeanne Blasberg is an award-winning and bestselling author and essayist. Her first two novels, The Nine (released in 2019) and Eden (released in 2017), were both award winners, and the third in that trilogy, Daughter of a Promise, was just released this past April.

A Smith College graduate, Jeanne was named a Southampton Writer’s Conference BookEnds Fellow in April 2021. She is both a teacher of writing and a lifetime learner and co-chairs the board of the Boston Book Festival and serves on the Executive Committee of GrubStreet, one of the country’s preeminent creative writing centers.

Jeanne also reviews contemporary fiction for the New York Journal of Books. When not in New England, she splits her time between Park City, UT, and growing organic vegetables in Verona, WI.

For more about Jeanne, visit her website and follow her on Facebook, Substack and Instagram.

In today’s conversation, we’ll be talking about the intersection of her life stage and her occupation as a farmer with her life as a writer.
