As you’re about to discover, we’re doing something a little different on our channel today.
We've been looking for ways to highlight and promote shows across the Writer’s Bone universe and don’t you know it, we’ve got a passionate, informed, and engaged audience right here on our airwaves, why not share stand out episodes like the one you’re about to hear.
Daniel Paisner has been on quite the heater on his show As Told To: The Ghostwriting Podcast. The conceit of his show is talking to ghosts like him about how they got into this kind of work, how they interact with their well known clients, what material they produce from their own imaginations, and how one goes about building a writing life in service of someone else’s voice. He’s talked to the likes of Michelle Burford, Frank Santopadre, Seth Davis, Amy Ephron, Jodi Lipper, Jon Sternfeld, and the granddaddy of ghostwriters William Novak.
Almost a year ago, Daniel called us and said that he was in talks with Jeff Daniels to appear on the show to discuss his audible original “Alive and Well Enough.” And as an added wrinkle, this all happened during the writers’ strike in Hollywood, so we couldn’t do a deep dive into his oeuvre, which actually led to a more intimate, in-depth conversation.
Please enjoy this conversation that originally aired Oct. 10, 2023. Also subscribe to As Told To and continue the conversation with us.
Note: This episode of As Told To: The Ghostwriting Podcast features narrative and song excerpts from Jeff Daniels’s audio memoir “Alive and Well Enough,” presented courtesy of Audible Originals.
