736. The Romances that Inspired Dylan Allen and Lucy Wilson-Tagoe
Smart Podcast, Trashy Books: A Romance Novel PodcastShow Notes
My guest this week is Dylan Allen, and Lucy Wilson-Tagoe, who are conveniently the same person. Dylan Allen is a bestselling author of contemporary romance, while Lucy Wilson-Tagoe’s newest book To Catch a Sinner, is out now.
It’s a mystery and a romance set in DC that focuses on art repatriation and the cultural minefield therein. So we’re going to talk about art, writing, the DC of her imagined world in the book, and about the romances that shaped her writing. We also talk about her choosing a new pen name and why that was so meaningful for her.
You can find the links and books we mentions in the show notes at SBTB. You can find this episode on YouTube if you’d like to watch our conversation.
