Episode 86 features an interview with international bestselling author Catherine Coulter, about one of her most recent titles, Insidious.

In the interview, Mark and Catherine talk about:

• The question Catherine’s sister asked her at a family reunion back in the 1990’s that inspired the her first romantic suspense novel, The Cove (which became the first book in her FBI series)
• The devious nature involved by the author when writing in a series where each book can be read and enjoyed as a stand alone novel
• The reason why, when most books in the series are set about 2 weeks apart from one another, there’s a 5-year time-lag between Books 2 and Books 3 in the series
• The benefits of moving between writing different types of genres as really great exercises for the brain
• The cross-over in Catherine’s fan base who read both Historical Romance and Romantic Suspense
• As a self-confessed “pantser” the fact that about 98% of Catherine’s writing is discovery and the backward-building that she does in the re-writing
• How her husband is her first editor
• Catherine’s preference for writing dialogue over setting descriptions (as well as her penchant for humor)
• How it is a wonderful time to be a writer and Catherine’s favorite advice for beginning writers

After the interview, Mark gives a bit of an update on Kobo Plus
