Well, you're not alone. In our newest episode, we sat down with best-selling author, Genevieve Gornichec - a woman deeply rooted in Scandinavian history, thanks to her grandfather's Swedish heritage. Join us as she takes us on a fascinating journey, tracing her steps from studying in Sweden, immersing herself in Viking reenactments, to penning down her successful novel 'The Witch's Heart'. Genevieve opens up about her initial apprehensions about publishing, but how the success of Madeline Miller's 'Circe' gave her the push she needed.Genevieve's tale is not just about writing, it's about the impeccable timing in publishing, the power of a niche market, and the relentless pursuit of a dream.
