Hey folks! This one’s for the locals (or the folks willing to travel). Two great events coming up. This weekend, we have the Author’s Tent at Supercrawl (Sept 13 – 15). Noelle Allen joins us to flesh out some of the details. Then we have Bailey Duff from the Telling Tales Festival, talking about their exciting event, focusing on lit for kids (Sept 21 & 22). Listen in! 😀
Jamie Tennant
E407 with DAVID WEILL
Hey everyone, welcome to September! Today’s guest is David Weill, a former transplant surgeon and, now, author. His memoir Exhale: Hope, Healing, and a Life in Transplant was well-received and now he turns his hand to fiction with All That Really Matters. Enjoy!
E406 with LULU KEATING
Hey folks! Just back from adventures in Ontario’s near north…September is upon us in mere days…things are bananas but there’s still gonna be more Get Lit.
Today’s guest is filmmaker and author Lulu Keating, talking about their collection of stories, Splinter & Shard. Listen if you can!
E405 with JEFF RUBIN
This week on GET LIT we talk with Jeff Rubin. He’s an economist and author and his newest book is A Map of the New Normal: How Inflation, War, and Sanctions Will Change Your World Forever. An extremely interesting read. Listen in!
E404 with LESLIE SHIMOTAKAHARA
Don’t confuse the episode number with an “Error 404” okay? You might miss my conversation with Leslie Shimotakahara, who is here to talk about her latest, Sisters of the Spruce!
E403 with MARGARET NOWACZYK
This week we have my pal Margaret Nowaczyk back on the show, to talk about her collection Marrow Memory: Essays of Discovery. Enjoy!
E402 with EMILY A. WEEDON
Autokrator is one of the most original books I’ve read in a while (also: thought-provoking, exciting, horrifying). That’s why I wasn’t surprised by how much enjoyed this conversation with author Emily A. Weedon. Check it out!
E401 with AVIK JAIN CHATLANI
Hey folks! Today’s guest is Avik Jain Chatlani, here to talk about his amazing (and occasionally harrowing) novel, This Country Is No Longer Yours. Enjoy the show.
E400 with SHASHI BHAT
FOUR HUNDRED, PEOPLE
That’s wild.
As I mentioned on the show last week, I’m looking at winding the show down. The book-a-week reading pace has really interrupted my writing time. Then again, when I say “winding down” I mean…maybe episode 500? Which is about 100 books away?
I imagine after I do that, I’ll start up a new pod, likely about writing, but not likely on a weekly basis.
In the meantime to celebrate 400 we have Shashi Bhat, here to talk about her excellent collection of stories, Death by A Thousand Cuts. I hope you like!
E399 with NICOLA WINSTANLEY
Hey folks! Today we talk with author Nicola Winstanley about her collection of stories, Smoke, New Zealand, and other fun things. Listen in!
