Rapid-fire interviews with Nashville's part-time authors

Happy Southern Festival of Books week!

To celebrate, we’ve invited nine local authors to join us to talk about their work. History, memoirs, YA, fantasy, cooking and more, local authors have been busy, busy, busy putting ideas to the page. Today we hear about their work, their process, and what compelled them to write and, in most cases, self-publish their work.

Guests:

Leslie Cole, MD, author, The Snake and the Tree

Kem Hinton, author, Nether Land

Nicholas Knowles, author, The White House of Hickory Valley

Tommy Lubben, author, Folk Revivalists: Stories from the Most Famous Band You've Never Heard Of

Susan Hudson McBride, author, Unfinished Business: Looking for Meaning Through the Eyes of a Southern Child

Mindy Merrell, author, Self-Rising: The Magic Rise Behind Biscuit and Cornbread Culture

Teddy Minton, author, The Belcourt Theatre: Nashville’s Oldest Neighborhood Cinema

Dr. Terrance Schofield, author, Black Man in the Mirror
