During the chat, which was part of Denise’s web series, CRAFT: Authors in Conversation, we discussed writing while on the road, the most atmospheric literary locale, selling nearly all of your belongings to travel full-time, and much more, including the subject of my next book, Eleanor Roosevelt, and her incredible World War II-era journey.
