Just posted, a new podcast of an interview with my amiga, the amazing writer
Solveig Eggerz, about her poetic novel, Seal Woman-- and Iceland, writing, publishing, facebook, and more.
Listen in on
podomatic or, listen in on
iTunes.
Here's the official description:
As part of the new series of occasional conversations with other writers, C.M. Mayo talks with Solveig Eggerz, author of the fiercely poetic novel Seal Woman. Inspired by the Icelandic fairytale of the seal woman and the true story of some 300 German war widows brought to Iceland to marry and work on the remote farms, Seal Woman has been widely praised and translated into both Hebrew and Icelandic. The conversation ranges from the author's unusual background (from Iceland to England to Germany to Alexandria, Virginia), Iceland's book culture, fairytales, advice for writers, and more.

P.S. Read Solveig Eggerz's guest-blog,
5 works of historical fiction.
(Next winter I'll be starting up the
Marfa Mondays series and some of those podcasts will be cross-listed with "Conversations with Other Writers.")
