Behind the Pen: What the Author Didn't Write
BEHIND THE PEN: WHAT THE AUTHOR DIDN'T WRITE
Featured Author Registration
Every Book Tells a Story. Every Author Has Another One.
Welcome to Behind the Pen: What the Author Didn't Write, an original ShePub Network interview series where we go beyond the pages, the chapters, and the published manuscript to explore the stories, lessons, experiences, and moments that shaped the author behind the book.
This is not your typical author interview.
On this show, we invite authors to pull up a seat at the in-person or virtual table and engage in authentic conversations about the journey behind their work—the victories, challenges, lessons learned, untold stories, and life experiences that readers may never find within the pages of their books.
Each episode features two authors and creates a space for meaningful dialogue, connection, inspiration, and storytelling that extends beyond the written word.
Whether your book is fiction, nonfiction, poetry, a children's book, a memoir, or a journal, we want to hear about the person behind the pen.
