"Write what you don't know about what you already know" - Brad Lott
From pinto beans and corn bread to guns and hooper swans, this episode with debut novelist Jim Haughey will keep you on your toes. And it's not just his charming Irish brogue!
Join Redhawk staff Richard and Jane as they interview Jim, along with decades-long friend and trusted editor, Tom Rash.
The crew all get down to business discussing The Broken Season, Jim's newly released historical novel set among Irish immigrant railroad workers in the Blue Ridge Mountains in the mid-1800s.
Together, they explore the importance of xxx, the challenges of balancing historical accuracy with imagination, and the editorial process that shaped the novel into a compelling mix of history, mystery, and memorable characters. Along the way, Jim shares insights, humor, and the warmth of his Irish roots in a conversation that's as engaging as the novel itself.
