Zibby speaks to debut author Jennifer Savran Kelly about Endpapers, an evocative and sharply-written early-2000s literary mystery about a queer bookbinder who finds a love letter and becomes obsessed with tracking down the author (all while struggling in her artistic life and with her gender identity). Jennifer talks about her love of papermaking, bookbinding, and book conservation. She also reveals she is part of the #5amWritersClub on Twitter, explains why she started writing in the first place, and shares her best advice for aspiring writers.
