Colleen Oakley, ‘The Mostly True Story of Tanner & Louise’ – The Girlfriend Author Interview (July 2023)
27:03
We’re going on a road trip! It’s inspired by author Colleen Oakley’s relationship with her grandmother, who had a ‘wicked sense of humor’ and mandatory 5 o’clock cocktail hours. It winds its way through two women’s friendships at very different times in their lives. The movie ‘Thelma & Louise,’ and a hectic cross-country drive with her husband and four children helped Oakley add to the adventure she hopes will help readers ‘escape and have a good time’ and ‘think twice about an elderly neighbor or an aunt or anybody they could start a friendship with.’
