Author Spotlight with Juliet Grames

Episode 212 Show Notes

This episode is different from all of our previous shows because Emily was unexpectedly called out-of-town to attend her granddaughter's birth! Instead of recording our regular segments, we share some housekeeping reminders and then jump into our conversation with Juliet Grames. We’ll be back to our regular programming on episode 213.
