Susan Isaacs, author of thirteen novels, including Any Place I Hang My Hat and Compromising Positions, talks with Mitchell about how she became a writer. “I didn’t know writing was in my future until I had to look for a job,” she said. After graduating from Queens College, she “landed a job at Seventeen magazine, writing advice to the lovelorn under the name of Abigail Wood.” On this episode, she shares her thoughts on the significance of a book’s opening lines, how she crafts her stories, favorite authors, and creating Corie Geller. Recorded at Books & Books in Coral Gables, Florida.
