David Agranoff is a writer who talks about how his upbringing and circle of influence shapes his writing. In addition to being an activist and avid sports fan, he and I chat about what it takes to be a writer and I learn about all the influences that shape his writing today. His newest creation, Ring of Fire, is available now along with these classics Punk Rock Ghost Story and Amazing Punk Stories.
