Susan Gooch joins me on episode number 5 of the POINT5 Podcast.

Author Susan Gooch discusses the full life that led to her writing. Past challenges, family, education, and her past and current writing projects emerge as central themes in our discussion. Searcy, Arkansas is lovingly described and warmly endorsed by the author as a charming small-town gem, rich in Southern hospitality, community spirit, and the very best qualities that make it such a special place to call home.
