Manage episode 480210965 series 3619891
#Creepalachia #Author
In this raw and deeply personal episode, Lori Ann Williams sits down with J.D. to talk about life after being labeled a felon at just 19 years old—and how she turned years behind bars into a powerful tool for transformation.
While serving time, Lori honed her voice as a writer, developing a gift for storytelling that would lead her to pen a gripping fictional novel—centered around a possible murder that echoes the emotional intensity of her own lived experience. It’s a conversation about resilience, creativity, and the blurred lines between fact and fiction.
