To open pride month this year, we're joined by Jen Karner (@articulatedream), whose sapphic debut, Cinders of Yesterday, releases later this month! Jen reads us a delicious excerpt of their book, and we chat about some of her favorite bits, the chaos energy of their drafting process, and why we shouldn't treat her as any kind of example for how publishing usually goes.
Things we mention in this episode:
NaNoWriMo
She-Ra and the Princesses of Power
Mobile Suit Gundam Wing
fanfiction.net
GeoCities
Children of Blood and Bone, by Tomi Adeyemi
Baltimore Pride
Boffer weapons
LARPing
Buffy the Vampire Slayer
Supernatural
Teen Wolf
Pitch Wars
RevPit
