Byron Lane, BIG GAY WEDDING

Zibby interviews playwright, screenwriter, Emmy Award-winning journalist, and author Byron Lane about Big Gay Wedding, a hilarious, quirky, and unashamedly proud novel about a conservative mom (who runs a small-town rescue ranch for misfit animals) and her gay son (who wants to get married at the farm). Byron shares his coming out story (and how it inspired bits of this novel); his journey with testicular cancer; his experience working as actress Carrie Fischer’s assistant; and the perks of being married to author Steven Rowley.Purchase on Bookshop: https://bit.ly/3s2W5sUShare, rate, & review the podcast, and follow Zibby on Instagram @zibbyowens!** Want more?
