WHY DOES ASHLEY KALAGIAN BLUNT WRITE?
Noè Welcome to Why Write, a super short podcast that asks writers just that, why they write. Hi, I'm Noè Harsel, a writer and Chair of Writers Victoria, and I'm excited to chat to a diverse group of writers and simply ask, why write? I'm glad you're here with me.
Today I have Ashley Kalagian Blunt. Ashley is the author of Dark Mode, an internationally published psychological thriller. Her earlier books are How to be Australian, a memoir, and My Name is Revenge, a collection of fiction and essays, which was a finalist in the 2018 Carmel Bird Digital Literary Awards. Her writing appears in the Sydney Morning Herald, Overland, Griffith Review and Sydney Review of Books, Australian Book Review, Kill Your Darlings and other places. Ashley co-hosts James and Ashley Stay at Home, a podcast about writing, creativity and health, and teaches creative writing. Originally from Canada, she has lived and worked in South Korea, Peru and Mexico.
