Today, I’m talking to author, editor, and artist Joey Powell about his newest book, Squirming All the Way Up. We talk about propaganda, joining a cult, the word bloated, making time instead of finding it, and writing prose instead of screenplays. Joey is a delight, whip-smart, and multi-talented, and I had a great time talking to him.

Today I’m talking to the master of pink horror, Wendy Dalrymple about her newest novel, Credenza. We talk about writing horror as hopeful, generational curses, pink horror, not being bothered by typos, and the biggest trouble with writing today not being anything to do with actual writing! Wendy is my favorite Floridian writer working, and I’m so glad I had her on to talk! Onto the show!
