New Book Network Podcast

I’ve been listening to a lot of podcasts lately. It is a good way to find out what it happening in literary culture when bookstores are closed and you can’t get out as much. So, I happened on the New Book Network coming out of Chicago, and in particular, G.P. Gottlieb, who reports on new literature. I contacted her and she charmingly agreed to interview me, regarding So Are You to My Thoughts, for the network.

So, in the middle of last month, Don hauled out his best Schoeps microphone and set up a little studio for me. Galit (Gottlieb) invited me to the Zencastr software and we recorded the interview! She put it together, it was edited for sound levels and so on, and it is now out. You can listen to the interview by clicking the link below.

So Are You to My Thoughts is the last of a series of books, all of which I could not expect Galit to read! She did read this last one, however, and asked penetrating, interesting question about it, which allowed me to say things I wanted to and a few I didn’t need to reveal. You can hear me flailing about for a thought. That kind of thing where your brain is going in several directions and you are quickly trying to determine which! Galit is a writer herself, writing mysteries with recipes in them, which she invites us all to test! You can hear the life and interests we share in our conversation. Minnesota, Illinois, California. Food and wine, politics and spiritual practices.

I was deeply grateful for the pleasure of being on her show!
