Welcome to the very first episode of After Dark with Christine. In Let’s Get This Conversation Started, I’m introducing myself, sharing a little about how this podcast came to be, and inviting you along as I write, create, build CMPWritesBooks, and figure things out along the way. We’ll talk about writing and where ideas come from, but this podcast is going to be about more than that—family stories, memories, everyday life, spooky things, creative projects, holidays, and whatever else finds its way into the conversation. And because Halloween is right around the corner, I’m ending our first conversation with a little Two-Line Terror. Have a story, memory, question, or something you’d like to share? Join the conversation at afterdark@cmpwritesbooks.com.
 Settle in, get comfortable, and let’s get this conversation started.
