Another Level Best Books author joins me on the podcast! After several fits and starts (mainly b/c I can't get my brain to work with scheduling), I finally get the chance to talk mysteries and writing with the AMAZING Sharon Lynn. We dive into her Cotswold Crime Mysteries and discuss all things drafting/writing/reading! Plus, the disaster that was the Boston teams in the playoffs (Celtics/Bruins), the amazing Boston Fleet still playing, and why my Red Sox are a disaster. Hint, it might be my fault.
