Love a good mystery novel? Ever wondered where crime writers get ideas for their stories? Listen in on my  conversation with WRAL TV 5 television reporter Amanda Lamb as she talks about her successful 'true crime' writing career. In addition to over 30 years of television news experience, this hard working, detail oriented reporter has authored 10 books; four memoirs, three true crime books and two children's books! Amanda discusses how her work covering crime stories in television news helped influence her first novel (a psychological thriller) and follow up murder mystery book "Lies That Bind" (available now on Amazon); her upcoming true crime podcasts for Capital Broadcasting, and the reality of social media and news today.  

About the Spotlight Conversations podcast:

Join me as I invite friends inside my cozy linoleum free recording studio to talk all about media. Could be radio, television, audiobooks, music, film, voiceovers - if they've worked in media, we're talkin'! Unscripted and nearly always entertaining, each guest gets real about their careers in the entertainment biz; from where they started to how it's going. Join us in the studio where drinks are always on ice; music + media are the conversation starters. New episodes every other Tuesday. Thanks so much for listening! - Donna
