    Alison Stine

    Life’s Soundtrack had the pleasure of interviewing writer & visual artist Alison Stine. Living in the foothills of Appalachia, Alison is raising her son and writes during every spare minute a single mom can grab: during her son’s gymnastics lessons, on the playground or late into the evening. During this episode we discuss Alison’s writing, being a single mother, activism, what happens when famous people retweet her work and, of course, parenting.
