I’ve been using Blubrry Podcasting as my hosting service for my podcast for years and it’s one of the best decisions I ever made. They give great customer service, you’re in complete control of your own podcast, you can run it from your own website, and it just takes a lot of the work out of podcasting for me. I find for that reason that it’s a company that I can get behind 100% and say, “You should try this.” Try Blubrry. It doesn’t require a long-term contract, and it’s just a great company, period. It also has free technical support by email, video, and phone, so you can get a human being there. Isn’t that nice?If you want to podcast, try out Blubrry. No long-term contract, excellent distribution, and great technical support, too, by email, video, and on the phone. I’ve included an affiliate link on this blog.Here’s a link to a PDF copy of the interview.Debbi: Hi everyone. My guest today has authored six crime novels, including her latest book, Money Creek, which she's offered as a giveaway. The first two commenters on her website on the contact page will each get a copy. She is a four-time Goldie Award winner and been shortlisted for a Lammy Award three times. She also reviews contemporary LGBTQ literature at the Lambda Literary Review. A resident of Chicago, it's my great pleasure to have with me, Anne Laughlin. Hi, Anne, how are you doing?Anne: Hi, Debbi. I'm doing great. How are you?Debbi: Good. Thank you. Let's see. I want to thank you, first of all, for being here today.Anne: Oh, it's a pleasure to be here.Debbi: And taking the time to talk with me.Anne: Yeah.Debbi: To all of us. And your books, they're all standalones, correct?Anne: That's right. I have yet to start a series, though I keep thinking I will. Maybe—Debbi: I was going to ask you.Anne: Yeah. The book I'm writing now would work out for a series character. But you know what, when you write a series, you really should be more mindful than I'm being and have in mind kind of an overall arc for that character.Debbi: Exactly.Anne: Be thinking ahead several books. Yeah.Debbi: Yes, exactly.Anne: I don't think I can think ahead several. I don't know if I have that capacity.Debbi: You might be surprised.Anne: Yeah. Yeah. So yes, all standalones and kind of a combination of traditional mystery, suspense novels, police procedural, the private investigator.Debbi: That's really cool that you have that kind of mix there.Anne: Yeah.Debbi: I notice that in a few of your books, quite a few it seems, you either have legal issues or a lawyer involved. And I wondered if you had a legal background.Anne: Yes. I, for many years, worked in large law firms as a trial assistant, and that... I burned out from that eventually and had to leave the business. But while I was there, I learned so much about lawyering, and what I learned, I was able to take in with me as I was writing books. So, because it was a comfortable milieu, I used it more than once. And also, lawyers are good topic or good subjects for crime novels.Debbi: Yes, they are, very much so.
