Author Liza Palmer on Young Fools, Friendship, and Literary Mayhem
On this episode of Narrative North, host Catherine Cioffi sits down with Liza Palmer—two-time Emmy-nominated, internationally best-selling author, Marvel contributor, and LA’s favorite “Lisa”—to dish on her newest novel, Young Fools (out September 9, 2025).
Think friendship, ambition, and literary drama—but with secrets, jealousy, and a little chaos sprinkled in. Two women. One cutthroat writing world. And enough messy emotions to make your own friend group look tame.
If you’ve ever suffered through writer’s block, secretly envied a friend’s success, or plotted to prove you’re better than everyone else (no judgment), this episode is for you. Bring your tea, your shade, and buckle up for a delightfully snarky dive into ambition, creativity, and all the chaos in between.
