Books and Brews: the place where beer and literature meet!
Ashley Fontainne writes in multiple genres ranging from mystery/thrillers to suspenseful paranormal to dark comedy. The recipient of numerous awards for her gritty, no-holds barred style of writing, her stories will captivate and pull you inside the lives of her characters and intricate plot lines.
Award-winning audiobook narrator/VO actor, Andrea Emmes, started her performance journey in musical theater. She’s enjoyed an eclectic career as a singer, dancer, Vegas Headliner, magician’s assistant, recording artist, and videogame designer.
She steps into writing for the first time with their co-authored paranormal and psychological thriller, ETERNAL BEAUTY.
We talked about masks (psychological, not covid), childhood trauma, plastic surgery…and Aquanet wiggling into tight pants in the 80! (And more!)

- If you enjoy our interviews or have benefitted from them, we invite you to help us continue our work. It takes a great deal of time and money to produce Books and Brews. We’ve been doing interviews since January 2017 as a free service to authors. We continue to promote those authors on our social media for years after their interviews. Subscribing, following, liking, commenting and sharing all help us to keep doing what we do.
- A $5 tip helps us pay for our many expenses: Libsyn hosting, web hosting, Google meets, providing the drinks for the interview and the many hours of preparation and editing that go into each episode.
