It’s a step-by-step guide of what a person needs to know to help someone in crisis, how to approach them, when to intervene, treatment, cost, recovery, and more.

Deborah Kobylt LIVE: Karen White

Deborah Kobylt Live

Ever had an idea for a novel but didn’t know where to start? Then please join us in welcoming best-selling author #KarenWhite, who never took a writing course, and didn’t start writing until 10-years post college. Thirty-one books later, with two-million copies sold in 15 languages, she’s glad she took a chance, ditching the world of business for the adventure of writing historical fiction.

Karen grew up in London, in a house full of brothers, and she would fine her peace by reading. She talks about getting lost in books, often fantasizing she was one of the characters in the books.
Karen’s latest novel, “The Shop On Royal Street,” is due out in March.

She’ll be joining us, with a special guest who is a frequent recurring character in her novels. But I’ll keep that as a secret. She also wants to encourage other writers to pick up a pen and write if they have a story in them. No need for formal training, just write. And read. A lot.
