In this episode of Killer Women Podcast, Danielle Girard is joined by author Nicci Cloke to discuss Her Many Faces—a psychological thriller told through the shifting perspectives of five men who think they know the woman at its center. Nicci opens up about the crisis of faith in herself as a writer that led to twelve (!) false starts before finding her way into this novel—and what finally clicked. The conversation explores the pervasive problem of imposter syndrome among even highly successful writers and some ways of getting back to work in spite of it. Nicci Cloke is the author of eight novels, including two under the pseudonym Phoebe Locke. Her books have been published in twelve languages. She lives in the Cambridgeshire countryside after a decade spent in London, and previously worked as a nanny, a cocktail waitress and a Christmas Elf to support her writing. Before being published, she worked as a permissions manager, looking after literary estates including those of Sylvia Plath, Ted Hughes and T. S. Eliot, and was also communications manager at the Faber Academy.
