Friends & Fiction

We’re four bestselling novelists and friends whose common love of reading, writing, and independent bookstores bound us together. Now we want to share and celebrate stories—of the books we’ve written, the ones we’re reading now, and the art of writing—with each other and the guest authors we invite to join us. If you love books and are curious about the writing world, you’re in the right place.

Launch Party for Mary Kay Andrews's The Newcomer May 07, 2021

Show notes

The launch party episode for Mary Kay Andrews's THE NEWCOMER is packed with all the silliness you've come to expect from F&F launch parties. The Fab Five take MKA on a trip down memory lane in a game show style mash-up of This is Your Life and Password. Meet her first editor, her agent, her current editor, and longtime pal from their days as newbie authors, Lisa Scottoline. The props and sound effects departments of F&F are not expecting Hollywood to come calling anytime soon. But the laughs were plentiful. And stick around for a mini version of F&F Theater in the aftershow. https://marykayandrews.com/

Friends & Fiction with Chris Bohjalian Apr 30, 2021

Show notes

The Fab Five welcome #1 New York Times bestselling author, Chris Bohjalian, author of 22 books, three of which have been made into movies, including his 2018 bestselling novel, THE FLIGHT ATTENDANT, which was the basis for the recent smash hit HBO Max television series starring Kaley Cuoco which was just renewed for a second season. Chris joins us to talk about his brilliant new historical thriller coming May 4th, HOUR OF THE WITCH. Described as part Crucible, part Handmaid's Tale, it centers on a young Puritan woman in 1662 Boston who is trying to plot her escape from a violent marriage. The crew also discuss the Armenian genocide and, to lighten things up, a comical tale about a box of missing hotel-laundered underwear from book tour long, long ago. https://chrisbohjalian.com/
