Wallace Stroby’s anti-heroine Crissa Stone returns this week in his latest crime novel, “The Devil’s Share” (St. Martin’s Press/Minotaur Books). Wallace was one of the cornerstones of Jersey journalism, having been a reporter and editor at The Asbury Park Pressand then an editor at The Star-Ledger for 13 years. Along the way, he reviewed books and interviewed authors including Clive Barker and Stephen King. Wallace talks about his life of the mind as a journalist and writer, and about teaming up with the Oscar-winning screenplay writer Ted Tally (The Silence Of The Lambs) for a series of Hollywood pitch meetings with TV execs thinking about developing a series around Crissa Stone. This episode was recorded at The Stephen Crane House in Asbury Park - special thanks to Tom Chesek for making it available - and is sponsored by The GI Go Fundand NJARTS.NET
