The Daily Whatever, July 21: Lawrence’s Latest Chapters
Lawrence reads us the latest chapter from his novel, and we're all transfixed by his voice.
Happy Monday!
Today Lawrence Winnerman shared the latest chapters from his novel, The Shattered World Series.
Or more accurately: we explored Chapter 2: Jake. And Lawrence read it aloud, and we all reverted to small children, utterly rapt by storytelling because his voice is so meliflous and the story is so compelling.
Here’s the chapter. But definitely listen to the podcast because it’s soooo gorgeous when Lawrence reads his own work.
We decided we needed the full show to discuss Jake, and that we’ll talk about Chapter 3 - Jackie on Saturday’s show.
