Elise Stephens credits much of her storytelling influence to a lifelong love of theater and childhood globetrotting. Her work focuses on themes of family, memory, and finding hope after a devastating loss.
 
I originally met her when she won the Writers of the Future competition in 2018 with her short story “Untrained Luck” appearing in Writers of the Future Vol 35.

When I learned of her book, “Forecast,” her invitation to this podcast was assured.

Her fiction prose is so easy to read and her sense of character is so authentic. Her’s was a book I greedily devoured.
