I got to interview game designer turned YA romance writer James L. Sutter in this episode, and it was a blast. So much good stuff here! I also talk about my latest anger at ADHD and what I'm reading.
Transcript
James L. Sutter 34:10: And so it was hugely enlightening for me to see, sort of these authors were very talented and established, going through the same outline process, you know, struggling with their pitches, struggling with characters and realizing that like, oh, every great work of art, like starts out as a pile of garbage. And like, I can make a pile of garbage.(emphasis Mur's)
What I'm Reading: Darkhearts, of course, but also These Prisoning Hills and People You Meet on Vacation. Affiliate links to all of these and the other books I mentioned in the episode.
