A book I have not stopped talking about since I devoured it, Portrait of a Haunting by Madison Tyler Nelson is one of the most stunning debuts I’ve had the pleasure of reading. And even more exciting, I got to sit down with Madison and talk about the grittiness of publishing, the drafting process, the specifics of Portrait, her characters, her world-building, and more. Talking to Madison was like talking to a good, wise friend, and I am SO thankful for her time!
