Ham and his wife, Mary, settled into small town life in Woodstock, CT and raised four sons there.  He pursued many creative interests including hosting a talk radio program at a small AM station, the setting for the novel, “Talk Radio.”  Susan and Rosemary spoke with him about his book from his current home on the coast of Maine.  

Authors Out Loud is a series of discussions with authors, exploring their books – delving into the inspiration for their characters, themes and stories, as well as discussing the craft of writing itself, the trials and victories they experience seeing their works to completion.
