Teen trauma, relationships and wearing many hats with Dr Bella Elwood-Clayton

Bella Elwood Clayton poses with her book 'Weekend Friends'

Relationship expert, author, and editor Bella Elwood-Clayton whizzes around the rink with Tania as she clarifies her writing process, how she manages multiple roles (or not) and agrees that the writing life can be ‘painful without many rewards’. Next, Lucinda (who has listened to ALL the teen podcasts) and Bella discuss the effects of social media on tweens, the ever-changing parental role, and… eeek … teenager bedrooms.

Clad in an iridescent lilac padded jacket openly coveted by Lucinda, “mystery crime and young adult action thriller” author Erina Reddan makes it more than once around the rink. She and Tania discuss mystery writing, method, project choice and that moment Erina realised she MAY have been brought up in a cult. #vlog #writing #writingcommunity #writingtips #authors

Despite a few nerves, R.W.R. (Rob) McDonald manages eight rounds of the ice, even travelling backwards – well, technically anyway. Lucinda quizzes Rob on how it feels to straddle two worlds (writing crime and writing for children), which writer group is the most fun to hang out with, and how he comes up with the BEST protagonists and book titles. Visit Rob’s (R.W.R. McDonald’s) website here.

Somehow, Tania and Lucinda have managed to schedule an interview during the school holidays. The rink is PACKED. Luckily, established crime author J.P. Pomare is as confident on the ice as he is with his prose. After a few hectic laps, Tania manages to catch up with J.P. to chat writing about race and class, the distractions of reviews and events, ‘second book syndrome’ and designer dinkuses. An open and lively conversation with an amiable talent! #vlog #writing #writingcommunity #writingtips #authors
