A Chicago native, Jennie was inspired by her own mother’s work as a University of Chicago-trained biochemist in the 1950s for her latest novel, <em>Atomic Love</em>. </p><p><br></p><p>We had a great chat with Jennie about juggling a day job with being a writer (she was previously a highly successful creative director at various New York ad agencies) and hear about the type of research that she does for her historical fiction novels. We also explore the real-life inspirations behind <em>Atomic Love</em>, and of course find out whether she prefers real books or ebooks (clue: Tariq was very happy with her answer!)</p><p><br></p><p><strong>Links:</strong></p><p><br></p><p><a href=\"https://bookshop.org/books/atomic-love-9780593329030/9780593085332\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" target=\"_blank\">Buy Atomic Love and Jennie's other books</a></p><p><a href=\"https://www.jenniefields.com/\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" target=\"_blank\">Visit Jennie's website</a></p><p><br></p><p>Watch our video panel Page One Sessions as we discuss writing with great authors:&nbsp;<a href=\"https://youtu.be/gmE6iCDYn-s\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" target=\"_blank\">https://youtu.be/gmE6iCDYn-s</a></p><p><br></p><p>The Page One Podcast is brought to you by Write Gear, creators of Page One - the Writer's Notebook.
