Logan Steiner, AFTER ANNE: A Novel of Lucy Maud Montgomery's Life

Guest host Julie Chavez interviews litigator and debut author Logan Steiner about After Anne: A Novel of Lucy Maud Montgomery’s Life, a stunning and unexpected portrait of the creator of one of literature’s most prized heroines, Anne of Green Gables. Logan shares how, as a young adult, the Anne books inspired her to be creative and live more authentically. What really pushed her to write, however, was her brother’s sudden death eight years ago. She and Julie also talk about motherhood (and her decision to be a mom after 16 years of marriage), perfectionism, creativity, and the persistence and patience that got her through the book publishing process.Purchase on Zibby's Bookshop: https://bit.ly/3NNIBsuPurchase on Bookshop: https://bit.ly/44xfVKLSubscribe to Zibby's weekly newsletter here.Purchase Moms Don't Have Time to Read Books merch here.** Want more?
