I did most of my writing in Starbucks in the North Carolina town where I live, or at my beach condo, or on my back porch with a view of the woods, which helped me imagine Kayla’s backyard. Where did you write the majority of the novel? The program intrigued me and as I started researching it, the story idea began to take shape in my mind. In the book, there was a sentence or two about the 1965 SCOPE program in which college students were trained to help Black southerners register to vote. I was reading a book about the 1964 fight for civil rights, as that’s a topic that’s always interested me. When did you first come up with the idea for your latest novel, The Last House on the Street? As those of you who follow along here already know, I shared about The Last House on the Street in my ‘ Most Anticipated New Releases of January‘ last week, and today you’ll get an inside look into the novel from the author herself. Today’s interview with New York Times Bestselling Author Diane Chamberlain was months in the making, and I’m so grateful to have had the opportunity not only to read The Last House on the Street before its release but to be able to interview Diane.
