The Swimming PoolMichael is away, so today’s podcast features an interview with first-time novelist Holly LeCraw, author of The Swimming Pool.  Holly and I talk about her path to being published by Doubleday, and her adventures in finding a literary agent for her book.

Learn more about Holly at Hollylecraw.com, and be sure to check out her tour schedule. If you have a chance, I’d love you to attend one of her events — and tell her you “met” her on Books on the Nightstand!

Many thanks to Holly for her patience with me as a new interviewer. It’s not a role that I’m used to. I very much enjoyed our conversation, and I hope that you do, too.

I’ve mentioned Alison previously — she is the editor of my much-beloved Waiting For Columbus. She also edited The Swimming Pool by Holly LeCraw, which you heard about when I interviewed Holly in episode 72. [...]
