Alex & Nelson DeMille: scotch, gin & tonic with lime

The father & son team take a break from the fast-paced book tour to join DEDICATED for a 9:30am cocktail. They discuss Alex's childhood realization that his father was a major literary success, and later when Alex's 10th grade teacher assigned Nelson's novel, THE CHARM SCHOOL. They consider how much of a writer's talent is learned and how much is in the BLOODLINE (pun intended), how collaborative writing is fraught (Nelson and a previous co-writer did not have a good personal experience) and explain the method that Alex and Nelson have used to make collaboration work, and reveal the actors who could play Scott Brodie and Maggie Taylor.
