A. W. Collins - The Quiet Storm

Welcome to The Story Behind My Stories — the video podcast where crime fiction meets authentic experience. I'm Helen Taylor, your guide through the tangled web of my crime fiction stories and my real-life experiences in off‑the‑path locations.Readers of my crime fiction novels often tell me “It feels like I'm there” and “The places and spaces feel authentic.” That's because they are.Here, I usually share how I ended up in the places my novels are set, how and why I chose to use those experiences in DI Goodwin’s investigations around the world and at home in Surrey.But in this special Author Season, I’m sitting down with authors who have their own powerful stories behind their stories whether fiction or non‑fiction. We explore the real-life inspirations, lived experiences, and personal journeys that shaped their writing.Please subscribe, follow, or comment - it means the world to an indie author.In this episode, A.W. Collins shares the real-life experiences, emotional moments, and personal journey that shaped The Quiet Storm. We talk about the inspiration behind the story, the continuation into The Quiet Reckoning and how both these books and Anthony's current projects are influenced by his own experiences.Resources:Please visit www.helentaylorauthor.co.uk to learn more about Helen and her books and experiences as well as the new series of books that expand on this podcast with personal photos and diary excerpts.Get the latest from Helen Taylor at https://helentaylorauthor.comOr for all links go to https://linktr.ee/helentaylorauthorTo learn more about Anthony Collins head to his website at https://www.awcollinsauthor.comFollow him on Facebook at https://www.facebook.com/authorawcollinsTo purchase The Quiet Storm head to Amazon https://a.co/d/07wHoiHu #books #crimefiction #podcast #storybehindmystories #storyinspiration #bookrecommendations
