Mark Cecil on Letting Your Secondary Characters Speak

Cecil's BUNYAN AND HENRY; OR, THE BEAUTIFUL DESTINY releases March 2024

Today, we get to hear from Mark Cecil whose debut novel, BUNYAN AND HENRY; OR, THE BEAUTIFUL DESTINY, was released in March. We’ll be talking about ways in which an author can deliver deeply personal/private stories from secondary characters even while writing in 3rd person limited. 

Watch a recording here. The audio/video version is available for one week. Missed it? Check out the podcast version above or on your favorite podcast platform.
