EP24: Cannabis and Conferences, Rivers and 'The Bloater'
Manage episode 342419302 series 3005408
Hannah and Sam are both back from conferences — Hannah hit the New England Independent Booksellers Association Fall Conference (NEIBA!), Sam was talking cannabis. Hear what the booksellers are buzzing about (succession planning! Kelly Link!), how we really nailed the Morgan Talty book (Episode 18!), and how Maine and Massachusetts are really different cultures but seem to work together a lot. Oh, and Hannah saw Tracy Kidder at NEIBA, too. Plus, Sam's reading more Afrofuturism (Rivers Solomon!), and Hannah is reading old '60s-era fiction ("The Bloater"! Rosemary Tonks died in 2014) where people get angry about soup. Then we move into "Blurb Your Enthusiasm," a book about writing book jacket copy, which we mostly don't trust anymore, but which we spend a lot of time talking about. Finally, a murder mystery in a cannabis shop. Which is cozy.
