In Which Maurice Broaddus And I Talk About Dark Faith (And Politics)

Maurice Broaddus is a very busy man. Not only is he the author of The Knights of Breton Court novels (the omnibus newly released and cheap on Kindle -- grab it!), but every year he hosts Mo*Con, a great convention focused on conversations revolving around horror literature and spirituality. Oh, and with Jerry Gordon he edited the anthology Dark Faith in 2010, and both men just released a follow-up called Dark Faith: Invocations. Today Maurice and I talk about his novels, his convention, and the latest Dark Faith anthology -- all before getting to the really juicy stuff, like this blog post and this blog post. Even better, Maurice has been kind enough to offer up two (2) copies of Dark Faith: Invocations to give away. To learn how to win a copy, listen and enjoy.

Podcast: Talking Shop With Brian Keene

A few days ago I stopped over at Brian Keene's place to help him upload his very first self-published title Alone, which was released last year as a limited edition hardcover and is available now as an exclusive ebook (BUY IT!). When we were done, we cracked open some beers and recorded the following podcast, in which we discuss publishing (both traditional and self), the state of limited edition books, what makes a professional writer, Twitter, and a whole lot more. Enjoy, and if you haven't done so already, check out Alone.

In Which Scott Garson And I Talk About Fiction

Scott Garson is one of my favorite people. Not only is he a great writer, but he also edits what is probably one of the best -- if not the best -- online literary journal Wigleaf. His collection of microfiction American Gymnopédies has been reissued by Lit Pub Books (BUY IT!), and his collection Is That You, John Wayne? will be released by Queen's Ferry Press next year (BUY IT THEN!). Today Scott and I talk about Wigleaf, this scathing New York Times review, the distinction (or non-distinction) between literary and genre (with thanks to Peter Straub), and a lot of other great things. Enjoy!

About My Testimony

Have you read my story "Testimony" which was published at Out of the Gutter earlier this week? You didn't? Well, here's your chance to check it out. Or you can listen to me talk a little bit about the history of storytelling and then listen to me read the entire story. Or read the story while simultaneously listening to me read it. Or you can just be a jerk and not do any of this. The choice is yours.
