For this episode I sat down with author Sean Jacques to talk about his fiction debut, Doe Run. Author Eli Cranor says, “Sean Jacques knows the heart of the Ozarks, and puts that knowledge on full display in this sweltering debut. Doe Run burns slow like good bourbon. Drink up.” Doe Run by Sean Jacques features a desperate drifter on the run, Pen Cullen, who reluctantly returns home after a thirteen-year absence for the sole reason to pick up a family inheritance. He gets more than he bargains for and begs the question, “Can you go home again?”

In this episode, Sean Jacques takes us behind the scenes of his creative journey, sharing insights into writing screenplays, the inspiration behind Doe Run, and his approach to crafting compelling characters. From the spark that ignited his passion for storytelling to the intricacies of character development, Sean’s perspective is both enlightening and inspiring. I absolutely loved diving into Doe Run—thank you, Sean, for joining me!
