What an inspiring and thoughtful discussion! Alice, I enjoyed reading this interview and look forward to getting a copy of this new book. Your reflections on the importance of compassion and storytelling deeply resonate with me. I was moved to write a book called With Hope and Help after listening to a podcast called 20 for 20, where firefighter Nelis Jorgensen shared the incredible heroism of 20 firefighters on 9/11. While my character was fictional, I wanted to highlight the survivor's guilt many may still carry today. Stories like this remind us how deeply interconnected we are, and I’ll be sharing this conversation with my readers on Substack.
So powerful

Now I’m also curious about all the Anne’s in Kristin Harmel’s books!
This book sounds amazing! A perfect companion for a trip to Amsterdam- if even just virtually!!
Can't wait to read this book! Thanks for the informative and inspiring interview.
