Summary

Zibby is joined by author and professor Grant Ginder to discuss his latest novel, Let's Not Do That Again. Grant explains how his experiences in politics have shaped how he approaches storytelling, as well as which four books he brought on a three-day vacation. The two also talk about their similar writing habits, what Grant has enjoyed the most throughout the ten years he has taught expository writing, and what project he's in the early stages of working on next.
