Show Notes
Honduran-Canadian Author Anna Julia Stainsby joins me on the pod to discuss her debut novel, THE AFTERPAINS, a tender and heartbreaking portrait of two families coping with grief, isolation, and the generational, multi-facets of motherhood.
Stainsby shares how her manuscript, which began as a university thesis (largely written during lockdown), ultimately landed her her dream literary agent, publisher, and became long-listed for the Toronto Book Award.
We also touch on magical realism, if the generational curse she writes about is fact or folklore from her ancestry, having triple threat pen names, and how play (be it in the drafting or when taking author photos) is an important part of the writing process.
Don’t miss her favourite local haunts (including Toronto bookshops and watering holes) at the end of the episode.
