Episode 3: Caroline Tung Richmond

 


Caroline Tung Richmond is a smiling, stylin’ ball of endless
positive energy, and with her debut novel set to come out in
September (THE ONLY THING TO FEAR, 9/30/14 from Scholastic) I was
jazzed to meet up with her in Rockville, Maryland, just outside
of Washington, D.C. Caroline is full of incredible advice for
writers in the trenches, and gives us a perspective on how being
a new mother is hurting and, in some ways, helping her writing
process. Also, she schools me on awesome sci-fi references —
though Stark Trek fans should be warned that Caroline admits her
memory of Deanna Troi’s fate may be a bit hazy. (But we won’t
hold that against her - she has mad TNG cred.)
