CHIT-CHAT WITH A PERFECT STRANGER: UNCORKED with JUSTIN MARLOWE

the UNCOMMODiFiED Podcast

What can the perfect stranger you meet on the pages of a book or on Instagram teach you about yourself and the life you must live?
In this UNCORKED conversation, I chat with Justin Marlowe. Here's what I discovered about Justin in our DM's, emails, and our 7:38 AM Phone call on Thanksgiving Day … Justin is a new author working hard to birth his book entitled "Perfect Strangers" into the real world for you and me to read and experience. His book combines elements of black culture, racial strife, mental health, pop culture, history, humour, and romance into a tale you will want to read when it finds its place in the crowded world of printed and digital books. Justin is bold, brave, and a bit brash … no man's fool and yet willing to be wise and foolish enough to transcend the din of social media bullshit I see every day and get my full attention.
Justin and I discuss his writing journey and what drove him to write. Inspirational figures in Justin's story. The therapeutic nature of writing and the lessons he has learned along the way. Justin shares that his father has been one of the most influential figures in his story and how writing has helped him gain empathy for the people he has met over the years. He emphasizes the importance of bringing one's unique perspective and contribution to the world and a reminder to pursue creative endeavours despite fear.
PRODUCTION NOTE: WHEN THIS EPISODE WAS RECORDED, JUSTIN DID NOT HAVE A PUBLISHING DEAL. GREAT NEWS ... HE DOES NOW!
