Meet the Members: Joanne Easley

Posted by Writers’ League Staff

“I have attended several Texas Writes sessions and each time have come away feeling inspired and ready to write. “

— Joanne Easley  

A member of the Writers’ League since January, Joanne currently lives in Medina. 

Scribe: In what genre(s) do you write?

Joanne Easley: Accessible Literary Fiction. 

Scribe: What author would you most like to have a drink with, and what’s the first question you would ask them? 

JE: Stephen King. I’d ask him about his nightmares. 

Scribe: If you were stranded on a deserted island, what book would you want to have with you to keep you sane?

JE: The Hotel New Hampshire by John Irving.

Scribe: What have you learned from your association with the Writers’ League?

JE: I have attended several Texas Writes sessions and each time have come away feeling inspired and ready to write.

Scribe: Where do you see your writing taking you (or you taking it) in the future?

JE: I’ve written fiction off and on for years. Now it’s my full-time job. In addition to my upcoming novel, I have two others in first draft and am jump-starting a third with NANOWRIMO. 

Scribe: Here at the Writers’ League, we love sharing book recommendations. What’s one Texas-related book that has come out within the past year that you couldn’t put down?

JE: Yonderings by Ben H. English, a personal account of the life and people of the Big Bend.
