Faculty Interview with Tosca Lee
Friday, December 22, 2017 by Bethany Jett

Meet our Key Note Speaker, Tosca Lee.

 

Tosca is the award-winning, New York Times bestselling author of ISCARIOT, THE LEGEND OF SHEBA, DEMON: A MEMOIR, HAVAH: THE STORY OF EVE, and the Books of Mortals series with New York Times bestseller Ted Dekker (FORBIDDEN, MORTAL, SOVEREIGN). A notorious night-owl, she loves watching TV, eating bacon, playing video games and football with her kids, and sending cheesy texts to her husband.

You can find Tosca at ToscaLee.com, on social media, or hanging around the snack table.

 

The Interview

In this interview with bestselling author Tosca Lee, she urges writers to write their first drafts as if no one will ever read it, shares what to expect at a writers conference, and why patience and tenacity are a writer's best friends.
