  • Episode 216 – Somewhere in Lisa Czarina Michaud’s Hollywood
    May 21 2025
    Lisa returns with her sequel to the first novel (Slanted and Disenchanted) with a character-driven story called Welcome to Hollywood. It’s a novel of two 20-somethings in 2004 Hollywood, battling with high rents, unsatisfying jobs, and a deep attraction to one another - problem is, they haven’t figured out how to communicate who they are, what they want, and who they are each individually becoming. They’re still a band though, even if they stopped practicing, and music has a way of making connections. … Continue...Episode 216 – Somewhere in Lisa Czarina Michaud’s Hollywood

    May 13 2025
    Nick Mamatas has newly released an anthology called 120 Murders. A nod to an old MTV show in title, the stories collectively bleed thematically deep into the alternative rock scene of the 1990s, with touches of noir here, fantasy there, and universal transgressive fiction with characters that tell the truth about life as they perceive it. … Continue...Episode 215 – 120 Murders with Nick Mamatas

Give this a try, well worth it.

i have listened to WDC (Writers Drinking Coffee) for a long time now.

disclaimer: i'm not a writer but I love a good read.

I find the discussions to be fun and interesting, lots of varied opinions and styles between the hosts makes for great conversation. I'm fairly sure that my inner monologue is now in Genie's friendly tone.

the Interviews are a great way to learn how different writers approach the tasks of story, character building, world building, getting published and so on.

all in all I love this podcast and will continue to listen for as long as they produce it.
