Manage episode 493381870 series 1000316

How do you ensure authenticity as a writer? Some authors do a lot of library research. Others write what they already know about life.
Gregg Hurwitz “introduces [his] face to the training mat repeatedly and …gets choked out.”
It’s all in the service of ensuring that he knows intimately what his characters endure. Hurwitz is the bestselling author of 36 novels, including his latest, Nemesis, part of the Orphan X series. In this installment, his protagonist, the assassin Evan Smoke, tries to reclaim his humanity while dealing with betrayal.
We also discuss Hurwitz’s efforts to combat political and cultural polarization through thoughtful discourse, so listen in and then see Hurwitz when he appears at the Columbus Book Festival, July 12-13!
