b'Pamela Colloff and Mimi Swartz are executive editors of Texas Monthly.\\n\\nColloff: "That sense of loss, that sense of normal life turning on a dime is something that, in a very different way, I\\u2019ve experienced. And I carry that with me into some of the more difficult stories."\\n\\nSwartz: "Here\\u2019s this great [public interest] story that nobody\\u2019s ever told. Now how can I write it so the maximum number of people want to read it? I try to make the homework part as interesting and compelling as possible."\\n\\nThanks to TinyLetter and PillPack for sponsoring this week\'s episode.\\n\\nShow notes:\\n@pamelacolloff\\nColloff on Longform\\n[2:15] Longform Podcast #16: Pamela Colloff\\n[10:00] "A Bend in the River" (Texas Monthly \\u2022 Jul 2002)\\n[10:00] "A Question of Mercy" (Texas Monthly \\u2022 Mar 2014)\\n[10:30] "The Innocent Man, Part One" (Texas Monthly \\u2022 Nov 2012)\\n[10:30] "The Innocent Man, Part Two" (Texas Monthly \\u2022 Dec 2012)\\n[14:45] "Innocence Found" (Texas Monthly \\u2022 Jan 2011)\\n\\nShow notes:\\n@mimiswartz\\nSwartz on Longform\\n[25:30] "Mothers, Sisters, Daughters, Wives" (Texas Monthly \\u2022 Aug 2012)\\n[33:30] "The Ring and I" (Texas Monthly \\u2022 Jan 2014)\\n[35:15] "Sexual Misconduct in the Military--and Why Kirsten Gillibrand Is Pushing Reform to the Top of Her Agenda" (Vogue \\u2022 Feb 2014)\\n[35:45] "Failure is Not an Option" (Texas Monthly \\u2022 Oct 2013)\\n[41:00] Power Failure: The Inside Story of the Collapse of Enron (Crown Business \\u2022 Mar 2004)\\nLearn more about your ad choices.
