The Onia Fox Interview

For this episode, we almost but not quite chatted with Onia Fox about their style of writing and their author journey. Onia is a very private person who uses a pen name and does not appear in public, so we used a guest voice we found in the attic to bring life to Onia's words. 
Onia's books don't stick to one genre, however, Jessica Taylor (Onia's main character) features in all of their books. You can find out more about Onia Fox here.
