In this video from BookExpo America 2014, Lisa Scottoline speaks with humor and passion about the magic of books and the importance of writing the truth. Scottoline says as a novelist, "the interesting thing you learn, is that you have to tell it true.... It has to make me a little worried about saying it out loud." Scottoline is featured along with her agent Molly Friedrich in the July/August issue of Poets & Writers Magazine.
