Last week I published my interview with journalist and author Adem Tepedelen. We discussed his decades of freelance writing and how that morphed into a career co-writing memoirs with rock stars (including his most recent release, A Fabulous Disaster, co-written with Gary Holt of the bands Exodus and Slayer). There were a few things that didn’t make it into the finished piece, so I’m sharing those outtakes here, along with Adem’s recommendations for things you should read, watch, and listen to.
