Colin McEnroe Show: Good Friends Of The CMS

http://cptv.vo.llnwd.net/o2/ypmwebcontent/Commodore%20Skahill/Colin%20McEnroe%20Show%2004-07-2011.mp3

Luanne Rice has written 28 novels, many of them bestsellers, with translations into 24 languages and five TV adaptations.

She's a bi-coastal literary force, welcome in and familiar with the power corridors of New York publishing and the L.A. entertainment industry.

She's also, as I can attest, in many ways still the girl who grew up in New Britain and spent summers in Old Lyme - the daughter of a man who sold typewriters. Luanne's fiction usually has a strong Connecticut component, which is one reason I like to have her on as a guest. The other reason is that she's kind of family. She was one of the early supporters of this show and has been a frequent guest. And in just the way I like having the listeners grow familiar and comfortable with panelists on The Nose, I like the idea that you'll come to know some our regulars Like Luanne and musician Grayson Hugh, who's also back with us today.

Read an excerpt from The Silver Boat.
