"I'm just not gonna tell Gail," he said of his editor when he took the first assignment from Vanity Fair--but there was something going on with the Parkland students that grabbed him, and he--with the help of his agent, Betsy Lerner--grabbed it. "I just had to."He describes the process of writing the book, how the length, plan and due dates evolved--and how he almost went broke doing it. #FaveIndieBookstoreDave's #FaveIndieBookstore is Books & Books (https://booksandbooks.com/) in Miami Beach, FL.

Dave Cullen, author of "Columbine" and "Parkland: Birth of a Movement" says there are thousands who follow, admire and even worship school shooters. Some have even made death threats against him. Hear the background of the True Crime Community.
Dave Cullen's riveting book "Parkland: Birth of a Movement" chronicles the impressive efforts of a small group of students from Marjory Stoneman Douglas High School to change the national conversation about gun control in the wake of the shooting on Feb. 14, 2018 that left 14 of their school mates dead (along with three staff members.) Cullen wrote one of the most definitive books about Columbine, the first high-profile mass shooting at a U.S. school 19 years earlier.
Acclaimed journalist Dave Cullen changed the way we think and talk about mass shootings with a definitive account of the 1999 Columbine massacre and its aftermath. On this week’s Fully Booked, he joins us to discuss Parkland: Birth of a Movement, a heartbreaking and hopeful chronicle of the student-led revolution launched just hours after the 2018 massacre at Marjory Stoneman Douglas High School. Our editors join later in the episode with their top picks in books this week.
