Podcast episode 21: The Writing Life with Victoria Namkung

This week on the Dear Handmade Life podcast we’re drinking a Nature’s Guru Instant Chai and talking to Victoria Numkung. We have a conversation with writer and journalist Victoria Namkung who kept Delilah up all night one recent evening reading her debut novel The Things We Tell Ourselves. Fifteen years of writing for a living have lead up to Victoria’s dream of writing a novel and getting it published and we explore the process, inspiration and challenges of what it is like to venture into this new, but kind of familiar territory. We also chat with Victoria about motivation, Ice-T, Corey Haim, Corey Feldman and rejection.

Be sure to check out Victoria’s 10 things I’ve Learned as a debut Novelist on The Huffington Post.
