Sinopse

Mark Powell pulls double duty to talk about both writing (as the author of four novels, most recently, THE SHELTERING) and MFA programs (he helped start the program at Stetson University). They chat about Mark's circuitous route to writing from his childhood in South Carolina to his time in divinity school to his slow realization that he needed to write about his own life.      Mark and James discuss: The Bread Loaf Writers' Conference Sports Illustrated LONESOME DOVE by Larry McMurtry  John Grisham   Eudora Welty  Flannery O'Connor  William Faulkner  Cormac McCarthy  The New Yorker  NPR  The Peter Taylor Prize for the Novel  James Dickey  Janette Turner Hospital  Ron Rash  Les Murray  Seamus Heaney  William Butler Yeats  THE LORDS OF DISCIPLINE by Pat Conroy  Story River Books  Carson McCullers  William Gay  Don DeLillo  RESUSCITATION OF A HANGED MAN by Denis Johnson  Noam Chomsky  PLAYERS by Don DeLillo  Howard Zinn  "Beverly Home" by Denis Johnson  Chantel Acevedo Patricia Engel  Edwidge Danticat  Francisc
