Interview with Amara Lynn
About our Guest: Amara Lynn has always been a quiet daydreamer. Coming up with characters and worlds since childhood, they eventually found an outlet in writing. They were born and raised in the Midwest USA, where they remain stuck with their spouse and cats. They love to write about soft monsters and cryptids, grumpy enbies, and forever will be weak for the grumpy one is soft for the sunshine one trope. When not writing, they are usually watching anime, playing games, and obsessing over their out of control music playlists.

Interview with AJ Nora
About our Guest: AJ is an ace-spec/pan indie author from the Deep South who writes queer normative fantasy with closed door romance. She loves fated mates, faeries, shifters, and swords. When she’s not reading or writing, she’s probably playing cozy video games with her spouse and their orange gremlin cat.

Choosing A Publisher and Why I Am A Hybrid Author
It’s been a long time, probably close to a decade, since I worked with a publisher; however, recently I made the decision to return to working with Changeling Press, a publisher I’d worked with before and enjoyed publishing with. This episode has me talking about why I chose to work with a publisher, what to look for in a publisher, and why I’m now switching to being a hybrid author. I hope you enjoy!

Interview with PL Sanderson
About our Guest: Phillip has enjoyed a 30+ year career as a high school mathematics teacher but is now excited to explore another of his lifelong passions, writing. He has been a closet writer for many years, sharing only with family and close friends. In 2022, he began writing in earnest and experimented with short fiction published in a monthly newsletter for two years. Phillip and his wife live in southeastern Virginia, where they stay busy updating an old farmhouse (which is more of a journey than a destination) and keeping up with their four adult children. Most mornings she patiently listens to the dreams he had during the night and wishes that those people living in his head would begin to pay rent and stop free-loading. Lastly, Phillip is extremely salty that he did not receive an invitation to try out as the host for Jeopardy!, but reluctantly agrees that Ken Jennings does an acceptable job.

Interview with Scott Walker #WriteTalkWednesday
SHOW NOTE My voice starts going at the end of this episode (thank you Spring Allergies + Cold Blargh!), so my apologizes for sounding funny (funnier than usual?). Thanks for understanding. About our Guest: L.A. Scott currently writes cozy fantasy and urban fantasy, though he’s been spinning stories and weaving worlds for decades. When not writing, he loves playing D&D, dressing up as a Star Wars Sandtrooper for Halloween, baking sourdough bread, and playing video games. About the Cozy Vales project: Cozy Vales™ began with a simple idea: create a single cozy fantasy world for multiple authors to play in - and that’s just what happened! Author L.A. Scott created the foundation for Cozy Vales™ and invited others authors to add to it. For nearly a year, L.A. Scott and the rest of the Cozy Vales™ Scribes meticulously built out a cozy world and crafted cozy fantasy stories before launching their debut: Winter Tales from Cozy Vales. Even though all stories are set in the Cozy Vales™ queendom, each scribe brings their own voice, tone, and creativity to the project. The result is a delightful collection of tales for fans of cozy fantasy!

Interview with Chuck Rothman
About our Guest: I’ve been writing SF and fantasy since the 1980s, with two novels and over 50 short stories in places including Asimov’s, Fantasy and Science Fiction, Galaxy, and Analog. I recently received word that my third novel, The Cadaver Princess, will be published by Experimenter Publishing, part of Amazing Stories. The novel is set in London in 1831. Bodysnatching is common, as people sell them to anatomists at medical schools for teaching purposes. The latest shows up at one Dr. Sheppard, and sits up and talks, claiming to be the heir to the throne, Princess Victoria. Sheppard’s assistant, a young Senegalese man – captured by slavers and freed – is Pablo Mansong, who helps Victoria get her bearings and discovers the plot to replace her and have her rule as a puppet. But there are dark forces, ancient wizards, demons, and music that can drive people mad, all of which require Pablo to work to thwart them. I’ve been writing hidden historical fantasies, where the fantastic elements do not contradict the actual historical facts. It’s been something I’ve been writing for several years. Outside of writing, I’ve been involved in SF conventions. I’ve done programming for Albacon and will be the con chair for this year’s event. I’ve also run it for Astronomicon, and for last year’s Buffalo NASFiC. Quite a few years ago, I was treasurer of SFWA for three years. I also blog about movies and other forms of entertainment at greatbutforgotten.blogspot.com. I’m retired after 25 years in the IT department at Siena College. I live in Schenectady with my wife Susan.

Interview with AK Nevermore
About our Guest: AK Nevermore writes Sci-fi & dark romantasy with spice. She enjoys operating heavy machinery, freebases coffee, and gives up sarcasm for Lent every year. I’m sending you my bio because it’s super early when I’m filling this out and my mind is a vacuum at the moment. A Jane-of-all-trades, AK’s a certified chef, restores antiques, and dabbles in beekeeping when she’s not reading voraciously or running down the dream in her beat-up camo Chucks. Unable to ignore the voices in her head, and unwilling to become medicated, she writes full time around a nest full of ravens. Her books explore dark worlds, perversely irreverent and profound, and always entertaining. AK belongs to a bunch of industry associations, volunteers for far too many committees, teaches creative writing, and on the rare occasion, sleeps.

Interview with Russell Nohelty
About our Guest: I’m USA Today bestselling author Russell Nohelty. People generally know me as a fantasy author, comic book creator, and professional speaker, but I’m also a serial creative entrepreneur.

Interview with Frances Billinghurst
From Frances Billinghurst: I am an author, metaphysician, and initiate of a modern Mystery spiritual path with ancient influences residing in the Antipodes, south of the equator. I have long been drawn to the Mysteries of the cosmos - regardless of how they have appeared through myth and legend, sacred symbolism or in the liminal dreamscape. This has led to the study of various esoteric and occult sciences, with being initiated into a number of traditions that focus around understanding these sacred portals between the worlds. The books I write are based on my explorations, personal discoveries and research, often from the perspective of living south of the equator, as well as from a personal embodiment, or lived experience.

Interview with Elen Sentier
About our Guest: After a quarter of a century of working in corporate managerial and software engineering roles with the Ministry of Defence I knew I had to get out - but I can be very stubborn, and fearful of change. I hung on, waiting for a Round Tooit to come along but, as you know, they’re’ just about extinct! Eventually, it got so bad I ended up crippled by rheumatoid arthritis and osteoporosis plus a whole set of add-on autoimmune conditions. I gave up my stubborn resistance and let otherworld to lead me towards a much more satisfying way of living. I got medically retired, but I can’t sit around doing nothing! So I became a transpersonal psychotherapist and began offering the old wild-heart wild-magic I was brought up in twined with the transpersonal skills, as a new way of living magically. For the past 30 years I’ve helped so many people - who’ve all, in their own ways, gone though similar self-discoveries - to thrive.

Interview with Sandra Bond
About our Guest: When I was eleven, my school held a mock-census. One of the questions — a very obvious question to include — was “What do you want to be when you grow up?” There were the usual answers you’d expect; soldiers, firefighters, pilots, and the inevitable wit who put “A man”. Out of the whole school, over a hundred pupils, only one person put “Novelist”. (Not even “writer”, you’ll note. “Novelist”.) If you guessed that one person was me — well, you win a no-prize, I suppose. I bowed to pressure and went off to be a lawyer instead, but sanity prevailed and I got out of the legal racket to find a career that left me with enough spare brain-power and time to write. And so I write; sharp, distinctive fiction, most often in my first love, the science fiction and fantasy genre. My first novel, The Psychopath Club, appeared in 2021 from The Canal Press. The same publisher, failing to learn any better, is also responsible for The Devil’s Finger (2023) and Three Men In Orbit (forthcoming, August 2024). Doffing my novelist’s hat and replacing it with a poet’s one, I’m also the author of Poetry Slum, a collection of verse covering a broad range of topics, most of them controversial or argumentative. (I don’t see much point in cosy poetry). I continue to pen poems alongside my fiction, and I expect I always shall; prose I have to work on, but poetry just happens to me.

Interview with Irisanya Moon
Books featured on our podcast: Iris: https://amzn.to/4jalnLT The Norns: https://amzn.to/3CeGzQ3 Gaia: https://amzn.to/40qzNjz Artemis: https://amzn.to/3E1xBWU Author Amazon Link: https://amzn.to/42a6HWQ About our Guest: I’m an author, Witch, priestess, international teacher, poet, and initiate in the Reclaiming tradition. I have served the godds, my community, and the Earth for 20+ years. I am a devotee of Aphrodite, Hecate, the Norns, and Iris. My pronouns are she/they. I am passionate about the idea that life is, and I am a love spell, a dance of desire and connection, moving in and out of the heart, always returning to love. My teaching/facilitation style is immersive, gracious, and welcoming. I believe in creating safe spaces to hold whatever work you need to do at the moment. While I offer didactic classes in ritual skills, priestessing, and Reclaiming Witchcraft, I lean heavily into experiential work. I am a neurodivergent Witch who offers magickal containers that support various ways of experiencing the world, our bodies, and the mystical. I hope to be in service to those who feel disconnected from their power and their self-trust. I cultivate spaces of radical acceptance to foster trust and liberation. You are not alone.
