I'm your host, Lisa Iannucci, and today my guest is Caitlin Weaver. Caitlin is the author of the best-selling novels Such a Good Family, and Things We Never Say. In addition, she's a writer and editor covering topics including health, style, parenting, and business for outlets like Well Plus Good, Business Insider, HuffPost, Scary Mommy, and more. When she's not writing, you can find her on the tennis court, struggling with the New York Times crossword puzzle, which I can relate to, or reading just one more story to her kids.

Welcome to The Write Start podcast. I'm your host, Lisa Iannucci, and today my guest is Susan Hartzler. Susan is a full-time freelance writer and author who says that her journey as a writer has been both challenging and deeply rewarding. Honestly, I think like pretty much everything. Every writer can say that because it's that kind of a career, but I can't wait to hear about her journey and why she says that.

Now I'm going to shorten her bio a bit because it's extensive, and I'll let Susan talk a little more about her life. But her latest book, The Peace Puppy, a memoir of caregiving and canine solace, published by McFarland Publishing, explores the profound impact of canine love Companionship as a rescue dog named Baldwin instinctively assumes the role of interim caregiver to his caregiver owner and her ailing father. Her debut memoir, I'm Not Single, I Have a Dog, Dating Tales from the Bark Side was also published by McFarland Publishing. She has a thriving career as a freelance writer, specializing in dog-friendly travel and lifestyle content.

I hope you enjoy this interview. Please share it with other writers and follow me on Instagram @thewritestartpodcast. THANKS!

Welcome to The Write Start Podcast. I’m your host, Lisa Iannucci. Happy 2025 and I’m starting this podcast off on the right foot. Today my guest is actor/producer, SEAN KANAN and his wife MICHELE KANAN. Sean you know either from Netflix’s COBRA KAI (one of my favorite shows), CBS’s The Bold & The Beautiful, the original Karate Kid, his Emmy-winning role on Studio City, or any of his other film/TV credits).

Michele Kanan is an Emmy-winning producer, writer, and director. She has produced several films, including Darkness of Man starring Jean-Claude Van Dam, 'Til Death Do Us Part, and the sci-fi film Colonials, starring Greg Kriek. In 2021, Michele won an Emmy for OUTSTANDING DIGITAL DRAMA for STUDiO CiTY (streaming on Amazon Prime, Tubi, and Roku), which has received over twenty Emmy nominations.

Together and the reason they are talking to me is because they co-authored the book WAY OF THE COBRA COUPLES which is not their first book. We dive into that book and the others, Sean’s interest in writing, how they worked as a team to write a book, and more, and yes, they do provide some relationship advice for the new year.

Now I have to admit that for some reason I found myself a little loud at the beginning of the interview. I must have been exciting to do the interview! But I do settle down after a little bit. I hope you enjoy the interview too. Let’s get started!

Thank you all for listening. Please follow me on Instagram at @thevirgintraveler as well as @thewritestartpodcast and If you like what you heard on this podcast, please share it and leave me a rating or a review wherever you listen to The Write Start.
