The Quintessential Key West Vibe Captain Tony's Acoustic Sessions

Описание: Ever wonder what happens when a die-hard Jimmy Buffett fan who's also a professor starts writing books set in Key West? You get HR Gordon, and let me tell you, it's a whole vibe.
This month's book club episode is a special one. I'm sitting down with the amazing HR Gordon, author of "Fins and Flames," to talk about everything from growing up as a "parakeet" to turning Buffett songs into beachy romance and mystery novels. We get into how real-life spots like Moondog Cafe and Zero Mile Tattoo sparked her stories, and why Key West itself is a main character in her books. (Plus, she shares a story about meeting a guy who lives on a houseboat off Wisteria Island, and now I'm jealous).
In this video, we're getting into:
The inspiration behind the Beach Bum Book series (it all started at Captain Tony's).
How real people and places in Key West make their way into her fiction.
The story of getting her book on the shelves at Judy Blume's legendary bookstore.
Why 10% of proceeds go to Save the Manatee (because, chubby mermaids).
Her must-do, must-eat spots when she's on the island.
Ready to nerd out about books, Buffett, and Key West? Let's dive in.
