In this delightful interview, novelist Karen Dukess talks about daring to write with joy, and the enormous fun she had bringing to life her new book, Welcome to Murder Week.
Karen is the author of The Last Book Party, which was an IndieNext and Barnes and Noble Discover New Writers pick, and Welcome to Murder Week, which comes out on June 10. She has been a newspaper reporter in Florida, a magazine publisher in Russia, and a speechwriter on gender equality for the United Nations. She has a degree in Russian studies from Brown University and a master’s in journalism from Columbia University. She lives outside of New York City and in Truro on Cape Cod, where she interviews some of today’s most acclaimed writers as host of the Castle Hill Author Talks for the Truro Center for the Arts.
