This episode has thriller writer, J.P. Pomare, talking about his new, veritable page-turner, ‘Tell Me Lies’.
Topics discussed include (Trigger Warning):
- Psychology and the tightrope balance of a psychologist’s keeping professional duty and personal well-being/safety in check.
- Contemporary issues woven into the story and novel – such as the new and inherently traumatic job of a Social Media Content Moderator and the oftentimes malicious world of online gaming/streaming (i.e. doxing/swatting).
- Familial themes – what limitless lengths one is willing to go to out of a sense of familial obligation, from trying to ‘save’ ones family to trying to destroy another’s out of revenge etc.
- J.P.’s writing process and how it has changed, along with the challenges he has faced with writing his new novel.
- And much more.
