From HBO TV to her debut novel: Miranda Cowley Heller on finding her voice
Miranda Cowley Heller is one of those people who is in the enviable position of dividing her time between residences on either side of the Atlantic — she is talking to me from London, but also has homes in LA and Cape Cod, which serves as the inspiration for her debut novel, The Paper Palace. Cowley Heller has been immersed in words her whole life but it has taken her until now, in her 50s, to get published.
Along the way, she has had a hugely interesting and varied career, including stints on Cosmopolitan magazine, as a literary editor, and at the US television network HBO.
