International Best Selling Author Hannah Mary McKinnon talks about the imminent release of her latest suspense thriller ONLY ONE SURVIVES [‘sharing the spotlight can be murder!’], how a professional crisis saw her pivot from high-powered business executive to becoming an author [‘I’ve read a lot of books, so shouldn’t I be able to write one??’], aligning herself with the OTHER author Mary McKinnon, admiring Roger Moore from afar but Jeffrey Archer from up-close, why she’s a ‘plotter’ who interviews her own fictional characters, the writing process importance of the ‘puke draft’ [that’s the technical term], writing holiday romantic comedies under her alter ego of Holly Cassidy, and why she is such a fun and pleasant person despite regularly murdering people [fictionally, of course!]
