This week, Kelly and I sit down to talk with Shana Youngdahl, Assistant Professor of English at UMF. She teaches creative writing here at the university, and she also just had a book come out: As Many Nows as I Can Get. It got a starred review in Kirkus and has appeared on multiple “best of” lists, which is all pretty awesome. Oh. Did I mention one of those lists was “New York Public Library Top 10 Best Books of the Year?”
Yeah. Kind of a big deal.
So it was great to have her on the show and talk about her book, her writing, UMF, and publishing in general. Definitely worth a listen, and check out her book while you’re at it!
