Have you ever wondered if you could write a book, maybe a biography? Well I spoke to Kelly Catlin who did just that. Inspired by a family tragedy she decided to write a book about Kurt Cobain and wrote "Kurt Cobain - Forever in Bloom". Her book, Kurt Cobain: Forever in Bloom, offers a fresh and sensitive take on one of music’s most iconic and misunderstood figures.

Whether you’re a Nirvana fan, an aspiring biographer, or just curious about the creative process, this episode is full of honest, heartfelt insights.
