Marc S. Perlman on Leaving Things Unresolved (Temporarily)

Ted is joined by Marc S. Perlman, whose debut novel, The Riddle of the Trees, was published this March, more than a decade after he first conceived of it while biking through the Belavezskaya Forest from Poland to Belarus.Marc gives us an overview of the book, an espionage thriller, and the role that place played in inspiring its writing before offering his best writing tip, which he first heard articulated by the legendary Ken Follett and involves the strategic sprinkling of unresolved details. Marc also shares a pretty great use for some loose-leaf paper and a calendar during the outlining stage.Learn more about Marc and his work at marcsperlman.com.
