Wayne Jones interviewed me on his Writing and Editing podcast recently. We discussed both balancing a full-time job with writing and principles for Raising Other People's Children. Wayne has an excellent podcast for anyone thinking about writing a book or anyone who has already written one.

Writing and Editing Podcast
My guest today is Debbie Ausburn, who says that she makes a living as a lawyer but what she does with her life is, as she puts is, “take care of other people’s children.” In fact, children, and especially at-risk children, are the focuses of many aspects of her life—as a foster parent and a stepmother, but also as a now former federal prosecutor of child abuse and violent crimes.
