RECORDED 1/18/16: You know how you meet someone and you think: this person’s doing some really important work. That was my impression of Sunil Yapa when I met him almost 8 years ago. So it was particularly exciting to read his book, Your Heart Is A Muscle the Size of a Fist, and see the incredible reception it’s already getting. You are going to love this book. And you’ll love hearing more about his journey as a writer and the inspiration for this great story. You can listen here or download the episode from itunes! – Heidi Durrow
