Tk With James Scott

BRASS, the excellent first novel by Xhenet Aliu, mixes voice, humor, and simmering rage into the tale of a family that keeps ending up in the same rut. She and James talk about what they're going to do when they grow up, not porn-ifying poverty, editing vs. new pages, and then give credit to the proofreaders out there. Plus, the wondrous Chip Cheek tells James about the writing and thrilling sale of his novel, CAPE MAY.  - Xhenet Aliu: http://xhenetaliu.com/ Xhenet and James discuss: University of Alabama  Bread Loaf Writers' Conference  University of Georgia  Julie Barer  Avid Bookshop  The Old Pal  - Chip and James discuss:  Gunter Grass  Christopher Castellani  Grub Street Bread Loaf Writers' Conference  Emerson College  Whitney Scharer  Jennifer De Leon  Becky Tuch  Celeste Ng  Adam Stumacher  Calvin Hennick Alexandria Marzano-Lesnevich  Katherine Fausset Curtis Brown, Ltd.  Laura van den Berg  Benjamin Percy  Josh Weil Deb Futter  Jamie Raab Celadon Books  Macmillan Publishing  Ren and Stimpy  - http://t
