It's been a busy year around here at Authors are ROCKSTARS! While Michelle was preparing for a big cross-state move earlier this year, Allison had the pleasure of interviewing Unremembered author Jessica Brody via Skype.
We talked about her journey as a writer, moments in her life that she'd like to "unremember," and of course... the karaoke question.

Surprise! Natasha Friend joins us to talk about her novels, suicide prevention, and more.
So, this podcast has been a while in the making. Busy schedules and delays have prevented us from releasing it sooner, but we couldn't be more excited to share this fabulous interview with the even more fabulous author, Natasha Friend.
One thing we LOVE about Natasha's work is how real and honest it is. She deals with some tough issues, but it doesn't get bogged down in the gloom, just like life is always sunny skies or storms. Things change, people grow... and Natasha shares their journeys in her amazing novels. Enough gushing... let's head to the interview, shall we? You are going to love hearing from Natasha!
Big thanks to Natasha and her publisher, Farrar, Strous, and Giroux, for this interview! Be sure to keep upwith Natasha at her website.

An interview with Jessica Van der Stad of the American Foundation for Suicide Prevention
It's time...
WE ARE OFFICIALLY BACK IN ACTION. :D So excited to bring you our first podcast in 2015, an interview with Jessica Van der Stad of the American Foundation for Suicide Prevention .
Yes, we know, she's not an author, but she is a ROCKSTAR. So we are giving ourselves permission to stray from our usual format, and we hope you'll come along for the ride! As we mentioned in our previous post, we are running the Star Wars Half Marathon as part of Team AFSP . Raising awareness and funds for an important cause doesn't happen by itself-- Jessica is the wonderful woman who makes it happen.
In addition to meeting Jessica and hearing about the lifesaving work of the American Foundation for Suicide Prevention, you'll get to find out what we've been up to over the past few months too... LOTS of big life changes!
Without further ado, let's get to the show!
Thank you so much again, Jessica!

We're baaaaaack.
This is so exciting you guys. You see that? That's Allison and I TOGETHER AGAIN. Despite thousands of miles between us, we're coming back. We miss you. We miss talking about books. We're kicking off our re-launch with some special interviews on a topic that is important to us - mental health and suicide prevention.
So what's the story? Allison and I both started running last year and decided that we'd like to do a race together at Disneyland and do it for a good cause. We decided to run for the American Foundation for Suicide Prevention , a cause that is very important to both of us. It was so much fun to raise money for an organization doing such amazing and important work. We had a blast representing AFSP at the Tinkerbell 10k event in May (pictured here along with our friend Estelle).
We loved it so much that we're doing it again! And this time, we want to get YOU, our listeners, involved. So, when Allison came to Seattle this past weekend, we hit the booth! We were a little rusty, as you can hear here.
We are really looking forward to sharing some special interviews with you in the coming months. We are also putting together a signed book auction with all proceeds going to AFSP. So keep an eye on the blog because WE... ARE... BAAAACK.
