Laura Lippman, SEASONAL WORK: Stories

Zibby is joined by journalist and New York Times bestselling author Laura Lippman to talk about her story collection, Seasonal Work. The two discuss the combination of people and things that inspired the book's novella, which centers around dating apps, as well as their respective relationships with social media. Laura also shares whether or not she gets scared in her daily life given the darkness that comes with writing crime novels, her stances on sharing writing for free and why she is not precious about physical books, and how a podcast inspired the next book she is working on.
