I’d Like My Crayons Back Episode 5 – Mead Making with Brandon and Lehel

Episode 5 in my podcast about creativity in all its forms is a very entertaining interview with two friends who have a shared interest in making mead.

I’d Like My Crayons Back Episode 4 – Author Karen Katchur

I had a wonderful afternoon interviewing crime thriller author, Karen Katchur, and am posting a YouTube link to her interview below. I originally interviewed her on my blog back when her first book came out in 2015. Enjoy!

Karen is the author of two women’s fiction/mysteries set in the Pocono area, The Secrets of Lake Road and The Sisters of Blue Mountain. Her crime thriller series set in Northampton County consist of River Bodies, Cold Woods and Spring Girls. Her most recent, and somewhat darker novel (complete with some very dark humor) is entitled The Greedy Three, which is her personal favorite.

To learn more about Karen, go to her website, karenkatchur.com or look her up on Facebook, Instagram, or TikTok, using karenkatchurauthor.

Here is the blog interview from 2015 with Karen Katchur.
