150: Robin Jones Gunn

In this episode of Book Talk, I have the pleasure of introducing you to my friend Robin Jones Gunn. Robin is such a light — I adore spending time with her even if it's constrained to Zoom. Today we're talking about her brand new novel Tea with Elephants. We've both had the privilege of traveling to Kenya and going on safaris (mine much shorter than hers). Tea with Elephants is a story of friendships and the value we gain when we give each other the gift of ourselves. This story is a beautiful exploration of what happens when we strip down life that has gone too fast and take the next step of showing up. I really love Robin's writing and her heart, but her writing rhythm might kill me. For years she got up to write from 3 to 7 a.m. She did this for 15 years y'all! that is one committed writer. Her advice to new writers applies to all of us regardless of where we are in life. Trust God and stop worrying. Connect with Robin Jones Gunn Facebook | Twitter | Pinterest | Instagram
