Summary

Award-winning content creators, husband and wife team & hosts of the podcast 'Lifewriting: Write for Your Life!' Steven Barnes and Tananarive Due chop it up with the team. In the JOB FAIR, they discuss their individual journeys and how to separate love from work and the art of collaboration.
