Podcaster Laura Diehl's interview with a fellow grieving parent




GRIEVING PARENTS SHARING HOPE.

 

Laura Diehl and I have both experienced the loss of a child. In her interview with me for her podcast, I discuss with her how my son Stephen''s death caused me to re-evaluate my faith.

 

We also discuss how writing helped me navigate my way through the grief experience, plus I read a brief excerpt from my fifth novel, Fake.

 

This interview is audio only (except for the show notes), so feel free to take us on your next walk or drive.
