Out Loud in the Library with Tayari Jones
The final Library Fest Podcast is out now!
I was honored to interview three amazing, influential, and accomplished people for Out Loud in the Library and Library Fest-- Gordon C. James, Volkan Alkanoglu, and Tayari Jones. You can find the first two interviews at the links below.
However, this blog post is to highlight the interview I did with Tayari Jones, author of An American Marriage, Silver Sparrow, Leaving Atlanta, and more. I highly recommend reading at least one (or all!) of her books. She's a great writer who approaches stories with a real grounding in character.
Listen below as we discuss research, typewriters, happy mail, and what it was like to discover her book being read in the wild.
Make sure you sign up for the Morning Call with Tayari Jones at the Library Fest website. And, check what else is going on as well. Chances are you'll find something interesting!
