Christina Lauren Podcast Interview - Part 1
We had the BEST time ever interviewing Christina & Lauren the authors behind the best-selling pen name Christina Lauren.
This was supposed to be a 30-minute interview and we ended up talking to them for a blissful and laughter-filled 90 minutes. So we decided to split it into part 1 & part 2 which you can listen to here.
We hit so many fun topics:
Whose idea it was to start writing books
Which K dramas Lauren & Christina are watching and loving, and why Korean dramas are actually good for Christina’s attention.
Coffee Prince
How Lauren is writing some (14,000 plus words!) fanfic recently!
Their feelings about the Midnight Sun (Twilight from Edward’s perspective) release!
Why the build-up to the first moment of contact is Lauren’s favorite part of the romance and Christina’s favorite character is fun and flirty and whipped by his lady.
How sex fits into their stories.
Why Covid 19 and quarantine has been personally really hard, but creatively really fulfilling because there aren’t any distractions. And why they finished their next book early, but they normally plot books in person and don’t know when they can do that again.
Where the best ideas come from.
Their favorite characters from all the books.
How they balance writing condom usage to include it but also make it sexy.
Bridget convinces them to watch Outlander (where my wedding scene fans at?).
Their relationship with 50 Shades of Grey, being in the same fanfic arena, and name-dropped some of our other favorite authors.
How they pick their audiobook narrators, which book they think is better in audiobook form
Things we mentioned in the podcast:
Coffee Prince - Korean Dramas!
Midnight Sun - Twilight from Edwards POV
Beautiful Bastard - the start of it all
Sweet Filthy Boy - for the Christinas out there
Dirty Rowdy Thing - for the Laurens :)
The Honey Don’t List - They recommend that audiobook over the written book!
Kushiel’s Dart - BDSM done right
