Kobo ReWriting Life - #36 - Mythology, Fantasy, and LGBTQ+ Representation with Arizona Tape

In this episode, we spoke with Arizona Tape, author of dozens of books across multiple series, and collaborative writer on many more! Some of her many ongoing series include Queens of Olympus (inspired by Greek mythology!), Crescent Lake Shifters (dragon-shifter romance!), and Crescent Lake Bears (lumberjack bear-shifter romance!). We learned about Arizona's journey to becoming a full-time writer, heard more about her solo and her collaborative writing processes, asked after her favourite manga and anime series, and got some great advice for emerging writers. We also chatted about LGBTQ+ representation, readers seeing themselves represented in Arizona's books, and why Arizona wanted to write books that her younger self was never able to find. We have a wonderful conversation with Arizona and can't wait to see what she writes next!
