Host Holly Payne's enthusiasm is irresistible!

You won't be able to stop listening! Holly Payne's enthusiasm for literature and the craft of writing is impressionable and irresistible. She has so much fun interviewing her guests. The conversation is enlightening and authentic in ways that I've never heard before. I've now listened to all available episodes and can't wait for the next one. As a writer and reader, I learn new craft techniques every episode and feel part of a community of people who work and believe in the transgressive nature of story.
