Bestselling author Denise Kiernan talks with award-winning journalist and author Claudia Rowe. Claudia's book "The Spider and the Fly: A Writer, a Murderer and a Story of Obsession" is not only literary true crime, but is also a memoir of Claudia's experience as a young reporter delving into the life and murderous personality of a serial killer. Denise and Claudia talked about how writers become obsessed with certain stories, the challenges of presenting unconventional works to the publishing industry, and the emotional challenges that memoir presents. There's more...journalism, pitching, waiting for the write time to bring a story out. For Claudia's specialty craft cocktail, Chall at the Asheville, NC, speakeasy Little Jumbo picked a creepily perfect drink for the book as well as for Halloween: "The Corpse Reviver #2." Grab some Absinthe, check out the recipe, and dig into some CRAFT with Denise and Claudia....Cheers!
