A Novel Relationship

On this edition of The Spark, Martha Woodroof speaks with writer Erika Raskin.  Erika grew up the child of Marcus Raskin (a human rights activist whom Dennis Kucinich called, "the dean of the American Left") and novelist Barbara Raskin. Her own first novel, Close, came out in October.  Erika, along with a host of other writers, is set to participate in next week’s Virginia Festival of the Book.

Marth Woodroof has retired from WMRA and is now spending her time as a full-time writer and published author.
