Enjoy this interview as the generous, best-selling author, Mariah Fredericks illustrates by example how to be a successful novelist - her writing method. her research method, her love of writing - her NEED to do it - and graciously offering her time for a podcast interview with a fan!
Best-selling author Mariah Fredericks released her 16th book, The Wharton Plot, in January 2024. I ripped through her latest, fabulous book that focuses on a true crime during the gilded age in NYC. The book is much more than that, though, it a behind the scenes look at the life of a famous American author, Edith Wharton - her broken marriage, her lover, her famous and not so famous friends, her career later in life, and her place as a famous woman in an age when women did not have careers. As usual, Fredericks seamlessly weaves all of the themes together in a fabulously written, engrossing and entertaining novel.
Fredericks uses the backdrop of a real-life murder to introduce us to Wharton as she tries to solve the crime. The reader comes to understand Wharton on a deeper level. Fans of Age of Innocence, by Wharton, will love reading about its author behind the scenes. In the podcast, I ask if the audio book narrator of The Wharton Plot is the same as the narrator in the The Age of Innocence Movie (The narrator is NOT the same as you will hear. Wait ‘til you hear who it is).
