BrumHour: The Podcast with Samantha Fitzgibbons, Author of Happy State

In the midst of martial law, a new government announces a Happy State; a state that promises to focus on the wellbeing of its populace. Raffela Crowe discovers that her father is suffering from dementia, and will stop at nothing to protect him. When she learns of a deeper truth surrounding the Happy State, that the government seeks to eradicate mental illness in order to create a pure and perfect race, the urgency to protect her father becomes paramount.

This week, Dave Massey talks to Samantha Fitzgibbons about her debut novel, Happy State. She discusses the writing, editing and publishing process as well as what it was like writing a novel during COVID-19.
