We explore the creative process behind shaping stories, balancing multiple perspectives, navigating feedback, and building characters that feel layered and human. The conversation also touches on cultural influence in storytelling, Hawaiian representation, collaboration between authors and editors, and the challenges of bringing a book from concept to publication.
