Welcome back Bookends to our latest instalment in our Debut Spotlight series! This week we were joined by writer Nicole Flattery to chat about her upcoming novel 'Nothing Special', we loved chatting to Nicole about how she didn't fully kick off her writing career until her late twenties and how odd it is that we view women's success against a timeline. Aswell as deep diving into her brilliant book, we discussed the moral ambiguity of Andy Warhol, how reading plays can transform the way you view dialogue, mother/daughter dynamics and much more. Nothing Special will be published on the 2nd of March by Bloomsbury. We hope you enjoy the episode!
