Our guest this week is Lisa Montanaro (Everything We Thought Was True, Red Adept, January 2025). We discuss how Lisa taps into her background as an actress to "method act" her novels as she writes, including acting out scenes and writing scenes out of order based on her personal headspace that day. In the publication arena, she points out pluses and minuses to going traditional but with a smaller press and the differences between writing and marketing non-fiction and fiction. Finally we examine the challenges of distribution to bookstores and why book clubs are the best.

Lisa Montanaro is part no-nonsense Italian American New Yorker and part sunny Californian. Her background encompasses performer, teacher of the Deaf, lawyer, productivity consultant, writer coach, speaker, and author. Lisa's debut novel, Everything We Thought Was True, published by Red Adept Publishing, drew inspiration from her family history and examines the corrosive nature of secrets—those we keep from ourselves, from each other, and from society. It won Best New Fiction/Debut in the 2025 American Writing Awards and first place for LGBTQ Fiction in the 2024 International Firebird Book Awards, among other awards. Lisa has served as webinar host for WFWA since 2019 and is a passionate member of its Diversity and Inclusion committee. When not writing, you can find her cycling and hiking with her veterinarian husband, gardening, and chasing after her rescue dog. Lisa has enjoyed living snow-free since 2012 in Northern California, where she's made it her mission to sample the wines of the region.
