A podcast where we interview queer and female-identifying authors about their upcoming novel! Hear about what made their book come to life, the ups and downs of writing and the publishing industry, and plain ole silly tangents in comfortable conversation that feels like it could be happening between friends at your local book club or from your couch. Hosted by long-time booklover and mid-time podcaster, Julia Steudle, Novel Finds is a place to celebrate diverse voices and read good books. New episodes every other Sunday!
