Episode Description

"I'm so glad that I found my way in because it's the thing that makes me feel the most myself." Eileen Garvin joins Zibby to discuss her debut novel, The Music of Bees, and the serendipitous experiences that inspired it. Eileen shares how her hobby of beekeeping was the best way for her to connect with her late father, why it took her so long to discover she was meant to be a writer, and what inspired the first spark of this book. Read Eileen's essay for Moms Don't Have Time to Write here.
