Author Eliot Parker dishes on his latest book “Table for Two: A Collection of Stories” and the Ronan McCullough crime thriller novels. Parker talks about growing up in Charleston, WV and coming out gay later in life. The author speaks candidly on the West Virginia Legislature trying to remove libraries, museums and schools from criminal liability exemptions over the display or distribution of materials deemed obscene during this year’s legislative session. He also chimes in on the appeal of adult children’s parody books and whether or not the world should forgive Madonna for her naughty coffee table book Sex. The crime thriller novelist also breaks down the recipe for writing a good book.

In the Spring of 2024, Parker was inducted into the West Virginia Literary Hall of Recognition for outstanding contributions to literature and West Virginia.
