Emma and I caught up again to talk more about the real Mary Carr that she uncovered and researched for her January 2026 nonfiction book for Pen & Sword. It is available right now!
This time we also talked about our writing processes, how much we enjoy research, and some of the pitfalls and struggles that all writers face in separating facts from rumour.
Emma and I also chatted about Mary Carr a few weeks ago and you can hear that extended discussion below or click here. You can buy Emma’s novel Mercy right now and you can pre-order her nonfiction book on Mary Carr here. Emma’s earlier Mary Carr novel is here.
