“There’s this misconception that something born of the imagination is less true. It’s more true, if you do it right.”<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

\"TheOriginal1982<\/a>Lori Carson<\/a> joins us to talk about her debut novel, The Original 1982<\/a>\"\" (published by William Morrow, an imprint of Harper Collins). Lori’s one of my all-time favorite musicians, so the conversation also covers her singer-songwriter career and her time with the Golden Palominos, where she recorded two phenomenal albums, This Is How It Feels<\/a>\"\" and Pure<\/a>\"\". It’s a really fun talk about the blurring of fact and fiction, the differences between songwriting and prose-writing (and album vs. book launches), how the music industry changed over the course of her career, her favorite authors and the books that sustained her through her first novel, why she made this life-jump from music to books, and more!<\/p>\n

“Many people get to a point where they say, ‘I’ve done this all my life; what’s next?'”<\/p><\/blockquote>\n
