Episode 10 of Rock is Lit features Jennifer Haupt’s novel ‘Come As You Are’, a story set against the backdrop of the Seattle grunge scene of the early 1990s. In this outtake from that interview, I talk with Jennifer about lost and deferred dreams—for the characters in her novel and for herself—and the difference in her reaction to publishing her first novel and this one.  Listen to Episode 10, then check out other bonus material in the Rock is Lit Vault, including my full, uncut interview with Charles R. Cross about Kurt Cobain, and outtakes from my interview with Nabil Ayers about his memoir, ‘My Life in the Sunshine’, and his experience meeting Joan Jett back in the day.   MUSIC AND MEDIA THAT APPEAR IN THE EPISODE IN ORDER OF APPEARANCE: “All Apologies” by Nirvana “About a Girl” by Nirvana LINKS:  Jennifer’s website, https://www.jenniferhaupt.com/ Jennifer on Twitter, @Jennifer­­_Haupt Jennifer on Instagram, @jenniferhauptauthor   Christy Alexander Hallberg’s website, https://www.christyalexanderhallberg.com/ Christy Alexander Hallberg on Instagram, @christyhallberg Christy Alexander Hallberg on Twitter, @ChristyHallberg Christy Alexander Hallberg on YouTube, https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCfSnRmlL5moSQYi6EjSvqag Rock is Lit Vault, https://www.christyalexanderhallberg.com/rockislitvault Learn more about your ad choices.
