UltraCreatives Interview #4: Mur Lafferty
February 12, 2008
In this installment of UltraCreatives, J.C. chats with novelist and podcaster Mur Lafferty. A brilliant storyteller and essayist, Mur has released her writing into the podosphere since 2004. Thanks to her “veteran” status in the community, she has a has a unique perspective on podcasting’s roots, the state of podcasting today, and where it’s going.
J.C. and Mur talk about that, her first memories as a writer, what allured her to podcasting, and more. Of particular interest are her thoughts on her Heaven series of audio novellas, and the conclusion of her hit podiobook, Playing for Keeps. The interview is about 90 minutes long, but Mur’s conversation and anecdotes are stellar, and well worth the listen.

If all goes according to plan, next week’s guest will be entrepreneur and Mahalo.com founder Jason Calacanis.
