Drinking With Authors | Featuring Trish MacEnulty

Guest: Trish MacEnulty is a former drug addict and was formerly incarcerated whose daughter grew up to become an advocate for incarcerated people. She grew up in a family of musicians and all she plays is the radio. She went to India once and did a five-day silent retreat. That was cool. Author of:

The Woman with the Wicked Face: A novel inspired by the life of Theda Bara (Histria Press, March, 2027)

The Delafield & Malloy Investigations Series:

Book 1: The Whispering Women

Book 2: The Butterfly Cage

Book 3: The Burning Bride

Book 4: Secrets & Spies

Book 5: The Ladies' Lantern

Book 6: The Furies of Winter

Book 7: Random in Red (publication date: October, 2026)")


Drink of Choice: Chai -- I don't know the recipe because my friend from Afghanistan makes it for me. I am thoroughly addicted!

Trish MacEnulty has written novels, short stories, journalism, plays, and memoirs. Like her great grandmother and the protagonist of her historical fiction series, Delafield & Malloy Investigations, she even wrote a society column in the 1990s.

A former professor of English at Johnson & Wales University in Charlotte, North Carolina, Trish now lives in Tallahassee with her husband and publishing partner, Joe Straub; her dog, Franco; and her cat, Tumbleweed. When she is not working on her books, she writes feature articles for the Historical Novel Review.

Her writing often includes themes revolving around women’s rights, justice, and redemption. In addition to her passion for historical fiction, Trish also believes in the healing power of personal writing, helping others to deal with trauma or addiction issues through writing their own stories.

She currently teaches in the journalism school at Florida A&M University, America's #1 public HBCU, and her current passion is working with refugees.

The Woman with the Wicked Face will be released in March, 2027
