FM #1607 - Author JM Celi - 12/09/25
This session of the radio show shares my recorded conversation with local author J.M. Celi. We had our conversation via Zoom to record the video & audio on Tuesday, December 9, 2025.
Our conversation lets you find out more about Jamie and his third independently published work “The Unlife of Lisa Cooper: Vengeance."
This is the second in the planned series of the vampire, Siobhan McSweeny or Lisa Cooper.
We talk about Jamie’s writing process, the road through multiple reviews and edits to publication. He has some other works out for possible publication. He is working on the outline for the 3rd in the Lisa series. There may be other works covering specific decade time periods in Boston.
The recording runs about 39 minutes so let’s listen to my conversation with Jamie
