Tia reveals how the initial spark of inspiration struck her during a sleepless night and then delves into her creative process. She also discusses her novel’s themes of following one’s dreams and pursuing creative passions and then talks about her past as a beauty writer, her fascination with flowers and fragrances, her transition to fiction writing, and her next project (a YA novel!).&nbsp;</p><p><br></p><p>Purchase on Bookshop: <a href=\"https://bit.ly/3wkJnrv\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" target=\"_blank\">https://bit.ly/3wkJnrv</a></p><p><br></p><p>Share, rate, &amp; review the podcast, and follow Zibby on Instagram <a href=\"https://www.instagram.com/zibbyowens/\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" target=\"_blank\">@zibbyowens</a>!</p>","author_name":"Zibby Owens"}
