In this episode of the Books for Men podcast, Douglas Vigliotti discusses his novel, Tom Collins, which was released (almost exactly) two years ago. The book follows the story of a 30-year-old salesperson named Christian Ballantine who sleeps with an older woman, only to later discover that she is his new boss's wife. The book explores the theme of consumption versus creation and raises questions about what truly matters in life. Vigliotti reflects on his writing process and the challenges of releasing his work. He also mentions that the book is available as a free audiobook on the podcast, Slightly Crooked: Good Stories, Told Well. He emphasizes the importance of focusing on the craft of storytelling rather than external metrics and encourages listeners to share the podcast episode, visit the website for episode transcripts, and sign up for the monthly newsletter, as well as, connect with him on Instagram @douglasvigliotti.If you enjoyed this episode, please consider supporting the podcast.
