April 05, 2020 Why We Need Print Journalism in These Uncertain Times
The recent, drastic changes in our lives have led me to consider the future of print newspapers and magazines, many of which were endangered for years before any of us first heard the phrase "COVID-19." I talk about the special place print newspapers have held in my heart throughout my life, and explain why printed media are still relevant and why I hope they will survive after the current crisis ends.

March 22, 2020 Talkin' about Singing and Songwriting with David W. Jacobsen
I recently spent some time talking to singer/songwriter--and longtime friend--David W. Jacobsen. David talked a little about his writing and composing processes, as well as current and past projects, and ways that songwriting is similar to and different from other types of writing.

February 16, 2020Writing in Second Person
My recent reading of Caitlin Doughty's Will My Cat Eat My Eyeballs? inspired me to do the episode on writing in the second-person perspective that I suggested I might do several weeks back. It's a great format for non-fiction, advertising, speeches, etc. But does it have a place in fiction? If so, what might some of the challenges be?
