INCRDIBLE NEVER BEEN DONE BEFORE WE LOVE U FATHER FRANZEN
In father Franzen we trust
OMG dream crossover! So proud of you, Jaylen!
Thank you so much!!!!
Stumbled onto this. Easily the best Franzen interview I’ve heard and I’ve listened to many! Lol at “there was no conceivable professional advantage in me talking to you.” 😂
WOW, thank you so so much! And I'll never forget that moment 😂
Jaylen, need to say it: you've outdone yourself. thanks for not asking the "same five questions" and really getting to the meat of why Franzen writes and who he is as a writer. this was exceptionally fascinating and you have such a gift for being able to bring these authors down to a very down-to-earth level for us 💓
I’m so proud of you Jaylen! Been following you since the beginning and it feels like you’ve arrived. So happy that Mr Franzen was pleased by your questions, and I can tell that you took time to think of unique thoughtful ones
never read franzen, didnt stop me from getting really invested - super interesting questions & measured responses! feel proud vicariously through you, so full circle!
Listening to Franzen talk about the restrictions in his writing is gold! I appreciate this hugely when reading, hate a repeated a word. GREAT interview Jaylen. 🎉
Let's go!
❤️🔥
wow!!!!! this is insane!! i never imagined that you were to ever interview him!! this is sooo good!
JAYLEN & FRANZEN?! Let’s goooo
❤️❤️❤️❤️
This is a fantastic interview! Insightful, original questions from you and carefully considered responses from Franzen. Really happy for you carving out a space for yourself in the literary podcast scene. 👏👏👏
Congratulations, Jaylen! This was an incredible interview!
Incredibly smart, skillful and conversational. Fantastic!
Thank you so so much, so glad you enjoyed it! Appreciate the kind words ❤️
Congrats on a great interview! And thanks to Mr Franzen for doing it. You’re questions were really good. His answers were truly interesting. (I’ve been to a lot of writer events and that is surely not a guarantee).
I especially loved his discussion of how he creates characters. That and the part about not wasting the reader’s time. I say/think that all the time, and it’s true. I rarely feel like he’s wasted mine.
Loving the direction of the channel. It seems like you’ve found a great groove. Well done!
Just finished Crossroads and so excited to listen/watch this (FINALLY) !!!
Hope you enjoy!!!
This is so so good.
It's here!!!!
❤️❤️❤️
haven’t read Franzen (yet) but it’s unreal you got this interview! iconique!
Thank you so much!!! Read Crossroads ASAP, it’s a banger
This is an amazing interview. I've been a Franzen fan for many years and listened to a LOT of interviews. You brought a unique and very.... readerly perspective. I loved your opening comparison to Taylor Swift!
Now that I finished though… him saying, there's no conceivable professional advantage of me talking to you…. Is such a Franzen thing to say😂
