New Fiction and Music

By Virginia Prescott on Monday, August 31, 2009.

From time to time, we ask bloggers to point us to new writers, films, bands, or websites to check out. Today we check in with David Gutowski, author of the blog Largehearted Boy. David posts free, legal daily downloads of mp3’s, music playlists compiled by writers, and he scours the web for interviews with authors and musicians. We asked him to join us for his tips on worthwhile reads and tunes, and he joins us from his home in Birmingham, Alabama.
