We are BLESSED to welcome the brilliant and magical Francesca Lia Block to the podcast. She is the author of House of Hearts from Rare Bird Lit as well as The Thorn Necklace, Dangerous Angels: The Weetzie Bat Books, and many more. FLB takes us behind the scenes on her creative process for this novel and how she connected the desert, mythology, and her own imagination into the tale. In addition, she has solid advice on completing structural revisions, balancing "dreaming" the writing with following a form, and the spacious and creative mindsets you need to stop worrying about time and trust the process.
