My talk with my good friend Kimberly Hensle Lowrance on her debut novel What Remains Of You.

We covered: (1) the architecture of planting a "phat hook" in the first few pages to snag a reader good; (2) why she didn't give up on the nine-year road to getting her first book released; and (3) what happens when an ardent and outspoken supporter of indie bookstores gets her debut novel published by Amazon.

Order Mark's novel Bunyan and Henry.
