It's the small NPR affiliate where I live, but it's my first radio interview!

A local lit instructor put me in touch with someone at the station to read my short fiction on one of their segments--but once they found out about my book deal, I got bumped to some other program.

Here's hoping I don't sound like a total dork. I can live with partial...

That's wonderful, Jamie! Being interviewed on NPR... that's one of my dreams! (I listen to NPR all the time.) Have a good time with it. You'll do great!

Wow!!! You're one step closer to my writerly fantasy. (Being on the Charlie Rose Show.)

Congrats and have fun with this! Get someone to record it for you so you can listen to it afterwards.

Or don't. Maybe you don't want to hear your own voice.

The interview went better than planned. The guest host was a former client of mine. It was great to walk in and see a friendly face in the studio...weird too, but it went well. The segment will air November 10th. When I get the interview on CD I'll try and post it on the blog.
