Description

 Anna Kharzeeva is the author of The Soviet Diet Cookbook, which she self-published in Russia shortly before the war broke out. Anna's book was doing very well and she ran cooking classes alongside her English-language book, which had a largely expat clientele.

Anna and her husband had to flee Russia for their safety and they now live in Sydney.

Anna talks about how external events can upend our plans as authors, and the need to try to pivot and still look for a silver lining.
