For a small town, Prescott has a surprising number of writers.

And now, with the addition of several new sources of caffeine, both hot and cold, we must brace ourselves for a greater onslaught.

Angie Johnson-Schmit is a fledgling crime fiction writer. You may have read her work in Spinetingler magazine or on her blog about the writing experience, LazyArtistsLounge.

In this episode, Angie relates the strange reactions people have when they find out you're a writer, defines "pantser" and the odd direction she has found her new plotline going.
