This week, I launched a new web video series for Live Wire! Radio and the Wordstock Book & Literacy Festival. It's called ReadRollShow, and the first guest is Joshua Ferris. In the 13-minute interview (distilled from an hour-long conversation), the author of Then We Came to the End and The Unnamed talked about 20th Century American literature, effective dialogue, making it happen at the hardware store, and coworkers who announce their bowel movements. It makes a lot of sense in context, really it does.
Special thanks to Live Wire! and Wordstock for entrusting me with the gig, and to Justin Alpern, for the incredible generosity and patience in helping me set up a production studio from scratch. And then of course thanks also to Joshua and his publisher, Reagan Arthur Books.
If you like what you see, become a fan of ReadRollShow on Facebook or follow the show on Twitter. And by all means, don't be shy about sending feedback or letting me know about guests you'd like to see in the future. (Already booked for the coming months: Sam Lipsyte and Brady Udall.)
