I chat with author and Pennsylvania native John Yamrus about his 2 latest books: People (and other bad ideas) and The Street. John shares his inspiration behind these works and also gives us a sampling of his poetry. John details how a drunken night with a friend earned him a rite of passage into the literary world and how to never underestimate giving someone a chance.
