Into the Fold - Novelist, Sung Woo

What this episode covers

Sung Woo emigrated to the US as a ten-year-old. With virtually no English, he transitioned into a New Jersey public school student, continued his journey into the Ivy League and landed, as we meet him here, a professional novelist with a slew of tales to tell. His third book, SKIN DEEP, a novel turn at a hard-boiled detective story, was published in the midst of the COVID pandemic and he has two other books in the pipeline. Here, we talk about his journey as the son of immigrants, his writing process, and a little bit about what drives his work.
