Fully Booked EP143: Crafting Compelling True Crime Stories
Today, we’re exploring the world of true crime, a popular genre that delves into real criminal events, the people involved, and the impact on those around them. Our guest, author Pepper Anne, was drawn to true crime through a personal connection, and has since become well versed in turning these complex stories into gripping narratives.
Pepper walks us through the research required of writing true crime, from digging through court records and interviewing victims to working closely with law enforcement. Keeping readers hooked can be challenging, especially when dealing with popular cases that readers may already be familiar with, so it is important to introduce new facts and explore unreported angles. But doing all this can sometimes be dangerous, and there is often a fine balance between presenting new information and respecting the ethical issues that come from dealing with real people and actual events. So if you've ever wondered what it takes to write a compelling true crime story, this episode is a must-listen.
