You might know singer-songwriter [Roger's Arsenal](http://rogersarsenal.bandcamp.com) for his roles in a number of Winnipeg bands over the years, or for his heart-wrenching solo material, but he’s spent the last little while working on something new – his first book.

"[Bear's Necessities](http://www.instagram.com/bearsnecessitiesbook/)" –written by "Roger Arsenal" – comes out on Halloween, and we talked about self-publishing, transitioning from a songwriter to a novelist, and much more!

Please note the last few minutes of the interview got cut off because the memory card was full, so I threw one of Roger's songs up there at the end instead.

Also, I realized after the fact that I repeat myself ("fun conversation") in the intro. Sorry.
