Sureka speaks with British-Nigerian author, Lizzie Damilola Blackburn whose debut novel YINKA, WHERE IS YOUR HUZBAND? is set to be an era defining debut. We speak about her goal of writing the stories that her and her friends never saw in books and film, the use of sensitivity readers. Lizzie helps make sense the editing process when you have US and and UK editors, tackling the Marketing and PR side as an introvert. Lizzie also helps to make sense of second book syndrome and what she does to overcome it to keep writing.
