  • Summary

  • Lynn Joffe is a copywriter, a novelist, a short story writer, and an author of children's books. She is the author of the critically acclaimed picaresque novel, The Gospel According to Wanda B. Lazarus, published by Modjaji Books.

    Lynn joins Fiona Snyckers and Gail Schimmel to talk about how she came to write a feminist reimagining of the antisemitic Medieval myth of the Wandering Jew.
    Describing antisemitism as a 'light sleeper', Lynn talks about how this myth was reverse engineered into scripture centuries afterwards.

    Lynn describes how losing her sister to cancer plunged her into a state of deep grief and how she is only now able to find her writing voice again.

    Fiona and Gail ask Lynn the secrets every writer should know about keeping their work at the forefront of the public's mind.
