Writing Crime Fiction with Stephen Johnson

Welcome back to Alchemy for Authors!

In this episode I talk with crime fiction author, Stephen Johnson, about his books, his writing process, and where he gets his ideas.

Other topics we discuss include:

·       Why Stephen considers himself an accidental author.

·       How the game ‘Killer’ became the seed of an idea for his first novel.

·       How Stephen's previous careers in journalism and the media impacted upon his stories.

·       How he moved away from hating writing to passionately loving it.

·       How Stephen finds inspiration in observing everyday life.

·       Why he believes that editors have mystical powers.

·       And why Stephen's not afraid to tackle tough subjects despite imposter syndrome.
