Interview on The Eastern Shore Podcast

Brock Winstead interviewed me for The Eastern Shore, one of my favorite podcasts that focuses on creativity, new ways of thinking, and Oakland. As a fan of the show, it was really fun to come on as a guest.

Brock actually lives a few blocks away so I walked over to his place and we recorded in his living room. We talked about the creative process, research, and personal history behind my novels. If you haven’t yet checked out The Eastern Shore, I highly recommend giving it a whirl.

In Brock’s words:

Eliot Peper is the author of the Uncommon Stock trilogy, a series of thrillers set in the world of tech startups and venture capital. They tell the story of Mara Winkle and her company Mozaik, which makes financial fraud detection software. Over the course of the trilogy, Mara and her team must handle not only the challenges of growing the business, but also a deadly conspiracy that wants to murder them because of what and whom their software threatens to expose. Eliot and I talked about how he came to writing, why the startup world seemed like a good setting for thrillers, and how he navigated the business of publishing and marketing books as a first-time, unknown author plus a lot more.
