In this week's episode, Dr Jo Skinner returns to talk about how she uses long-distance running to clear her mind and problem solve story plot issues. She also shares some interesting insights into the similarities between running a marathon and writing a novel. In this second and final episode, Jo delves deeper into the social issues that inspire her writing including domestic violence, positive masculinity and role modelling appropriate behaviours, and gender equity. Finally, Jo breaks down the book category of 'Women's Fiction' and where she sits on the debate about defining genres.
