Her latest book, <em>Truly Darkly Deeply</em>, has only been out for a couple of weeks and is already a bestseller and has had the film rights optioned.</p><p><br></p><p>We had a great time chatting with Victoria, hearing about how she rediscovered writing after a near 30-year hiatus, chatting about changing agents (and why that can sometimes be what an author needs) and hearing all about her planning process. We also talk about why she thinks <em>Truly Darkly Deeply</em> has hit so well with so many readers, and talk about the opportunities that some crime-writing festivals can give to new and aspiring authors.</p><p><br></p><p><em>*Victoria had a problem with her mic during the recording and near the end she switched to just using her laptop microphone, just in case you wondered why the audio changes!</em></p><p><br></p><p><strong>Links:</strong></p><p><br></p><p><a href=\"https://www.amazon.co.uk/Victoria-Selman/e/B07HX4NK9Y/\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" target=\"_blank\">Buy Truly Darkly Deeply and Victoria's other books now!</a></p><p><a href=\"https://twitter.com/VictoriaSelman\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" target=\"_blank\">Follow Victoria on Twitter</a></p><p><a href=\"http://www.victoriaselmanauthor.com/\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" target=\"_blank\">Visit Victoria's website</a></p><p><a href=\"https://www.crimetime.co.uk/crimetime-fm-the-crime-fiction-interview-podcast/\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" target=\"_blank\">Listen to Victoria on CrimeTime.FM</a></p><p><br></p><p>Page One - The Writer's Podcast is brought to you by Write Gear, creators of Page One - the Writer's Notebook.
