In this episode of Debut Discussions we chat with Turner Gable Kahn to discuss The Dirty Version, a romance involving an author and an intimacy coordinator who are thrown together to write new, steamy sex scenes for a TV series based on her hit novel!
We chat with Turner about her journey as a writer, the inspiration behind her debut novel, female rage and feminism, the tropes that shape her narrative, escalating heat in a romance, and this title (so good!).
Listen now to Turner’s story! The Dirty Version is out now - buy it, read it, and share it (in other words, make a debut author’s dreams come true!).

CrimeLess: Hillbilly Heist
It’s 1996 in rural North Carolina, and an oddball crew makes history when they pull off America’s third largest cash heist. But it’s all downhill from there. Join host Johnny Knoxville as he unspools a wild and woolly tale about a group of regular ‘ol folks who risked it all for a chance at a better life. CrimeLess: Hillbilly Heist answers the question: what would you do with 17.3 million dollars? The answer includes diamond rings, mansions, velvet Elvis paintings, plus a run for the border, murder-for-hire-plots, and FBI busts.
