“It was always the story behind the headlines I found more intriguing.”
This is The Creative Nonfiction Podcast, the show where I speak to the best artists about telling true stories where we dig into origins, work habits and process so you can be a better a better storyteller.
For Episode 105 I welcome Jonathan Green, author of Sex Money Murder: A Story of Crack, Blood, and Betrayal to the show.
Jonathan’s story of how he became a journalist is inspiring in that he didn’t have the traditional route.
- We talk about his origin
- Using Tape Recorders
- Making the extra call
- Forming relationships among sources and much, much more.

Thanks to you, thanks to Jonathan for his time.
Before you go on about your day, would you be so kind as to consider leaving a review of the podcast on Apple Podcasts? I’d love to see us get to 100 ratings or reviews and we’re almost halfway. It takes just a few moments, but those few moments help immeasurably.
Also, if you head over to brendanomeara.com, not only will you find show notes for the episodes, but you’ll also be able to sign up for my monthly reading list newsletter.
