It's our SECOND episode of Cabana Chats, a podcast about writing and community, brought to you by The Resort!
This episode features an interview with Hala Alyan, author of the novels Salt Houses and The Arsonists' City, as well as several collections of poetry, most recently The Twenty-Ninth Year. Hala lives in Brooklyn and works as a clinical psychologist.
Hala chats with host Catherine LaSota about the many professional hats she wears, the push and pull between her introvert and extrovert selves, and how her relationship to social media has changed over the past year, among other topics.
