📚 Welcome to The Writing Community Chat Show! Join Chris and CJ as they chat about their week, their new business, and introduce a special guest who has worked in screenwriting and on their novel. They discuss STORYTELLING, share excitement about their guest's new projects and offer WRITING ADVICE.

In this exclusive interview, we sit down with Alex R. Johnson, the director behind the SXSW hit Two Step (100% on Rotten Tomatoes) and the author of the gripping detective noir Brooklyn Motto.

🎬 Alex shares the journey from indie film to fiction, the inspiration behind his complex protagonist Nico Kelly, and how the raw, changing streets of 1998 New York City became the heartbeat of his debut novel.

Whether you're a fan of noir, screenwriting, gritty storytelling, or the intersection of film and literature—this episode is for you.

🕵️‍♂️ Brooklyn Motto is a must-read for fans of Richard Price, Charlie Huston, and Jonathan Lethem—a punchy, stylish debut that's as funny and heartfelt as it is dark and dangerous.
