Tricia Stringer joins us again hot off celebrating 30,000 copies sold of The Road Trip — and just months out from the October release of her next book, The Paradise Resort. In this episode, Tricia talks about how Road Trip favorites Kathleen and Omar found their way into the new story, and how a completely unplanned character, the irrepressible Beatrice, showed up around 20,000 words in and reshaped the whole book. We dig into what actually changes (and doesn't) about writing your tenth book versus your first, why Tricia writes toward “happy for now” endings rather than neat resolutions, and get into a wide-ranging conversation about AI, authorship, and what makes human-written fiction irreplaceable.
