New Arrivals

Lisa Morehouse

Booking Overview

This is a short-form literary radio interview series focused on local authors and new or recently published books, with external guests typically appearing to discuss their own work. PR agencies could credibly pitch Bay Area novelists, nonfiction authors, graphic novelists, and YA writers with a current book launch; booking difficulty is very low because the show is designed as an accessible local author spotlight.
