Laura’s Podcast 2 | Laura Joy Lloyd

Welcome to the podcast where we read stories one portion at a time and spend a few moments appreciating “the story behind the story.” For instance, I might share how readers influenced a Wren Island story. Bits about where my inspiration comes from, peeks at my writing process, ways the characters in the story inspire (or frustrate) me and readers, and more.

Beginning in summer 2025, I’ll be inviting friends to join me and chat about what we’re reading, learning, wondering about, and more.
