Spotlight Conversations

WRAL TV 5 television journalist Amanda Lamb talks books, journalism and family

Donna Reed Episode 78

Amanda Lamb, veteran reporter for award winning NBC television station WRAL in Raleigh, NC stops by the studio to talk about her new book "No Wake Zone", one of many books (in different genres) she's written while covering hard news for the station.  Here's an interview that gives an honest look at journalism, including the business of writing books and writing blogs (and her contribution to WRAL's parenting blog "Go Ask Mom". ) Her reputation as a go-to reporter (including regular appearances on crime shows on CNN, truTV, Biography and the Oxygen network) plus a solid work ethic carries over to her fiction writing as well, with eight books written so far and counting! Listen is as she describes her journey of self publishing, traditional publishing, her take on the future of audiobooks and more. Join us!


About the Spotlight Conversations podcast:

Tune in as I invite friends inside my cozy linoleum free recording studio to talk about all things media - radio, television, music, film, voiceovers, audiobooks, publishing - if guests are in the spotlight, we're talkin'! Refreshingly unscripted and unusually entertaining, listen in as each guest gets real about their careers in the entertainment biz, from where they started to how it's going. Settle into my swanky studio where drinks are on ice and the conversation starters are music + media - always a deal breaker for the rock and roll homemaker!
