In this extended episode, the winner of the Grand Prize in the international Eyelands 2020 Book Awards and Finalist for the 2021 Lambda Literary Lesbian Fiction Award for Exile Music,talks about the kidnap experience and resulting ‘what if’s that inspired her first novel, The Ambassador’s Wife,and how writing has become even more important to mental health during her cancer treatment. Liminal spaces she discusses with Dr Rachel Knightley include ‘home’, and how that truly means wherever her husband and daughter are – whatever country or even hospital room that is today.   Discover more about Jennifer by subscribing to Liminal: https://jennifersteil.substack.com   Sponsor this year’s Green Ink Sponsored Write for Macmillan Cancer Support: https://www.justgiving.com/page/somewhere-thats-green   Visit the Writers’ Gym: https://www.writersgym.com/
