Goodreads asked Bren McClain:

What’s the best thing about being a writer?

Bren McClain I get to inhabit someone else's mind and body, which creates amazing empathy for mankind. We all are contradictions. We're all full of poetry.

Cathy asked Bren McClain:

Have the movie rights to One Good Mama Bone been acquired? I could see it right before my eyes as I read your masterful prose. So descriptive. And accurate. My family in W TN was not like your characters but I pictured my grandmother's farm house for Sarah's and her garden shed for Luther's barn. I could feel the cold hard dirt floor and smell the machine grease, bags of seed and fertilizer, the hay. So real.
