Topics of conversation include the difference in writing books for children vs. writing books for adults, towns that the world has moved on from, gamblers, whether women tend to marry their fathers, the question of why Texas loves guns, the principle of Checkov's gun, gun safety, moving on from tragedy, and much more.
