Transmissions: The Book Chemist
What I never do is read a book with the specific intent to review it (e.g., because I think it will be popular on the channel). It would take all the fun out of reading!
POSSESSION IN THE GAME: An Interview with Thomas Kendall
There is this un-healable division between the physical and the mental within capitalist ‘culture.’ I do feel that we are losing the world and that begins with an alienation from the body.
TRANSMISSIONS: Not Worth Living
RG: What do you dislike about podcasts? IR: Hosts.
HERO WORSHIP LEADS TO CULTS: An Interview with Brad Neely
I wanted to highlight how that’s an impossible fantasy in biographies of someone in the past. That said, I wanted to be silly with the title.
LENGTH OR GIRTH OR BOTH: An Interview with Gwen E. Kirby
As for the demon novel, yes, I am dancing with that devil, so we’ll see what happens. But I hope to write short stories for as long as I’m writing.
TRANSMISSIONS: Agitator
Podcasting has forever cured me of being precious about writing time or having writer’s block. There’s so much commitment in podcasting, I’ve learned it doesn’t matter if I don’t feel like it or whatever, the time to do it is the time to do it.
THE UNDERCURRENT OF DEATH: An Interview with Julian Tepper
Early readers have already told me that this is a novel about coming to New York as an artist and what it takes to succeed. Believe it or not, I wasn’t thinking about that all too much.
THE EDGE OF THE EDGE: A Numinous Conversation with Mike Thorn and Kathe Koja
I’ve never felt I’ve fully, accurately transcribed a mental concept through writing, and that’s one of my key motivations for continuing: maybe I’ll get closer next time, or maybe not, but I’ll keep trying.
TRANSMISSIONS: Textual Healing
As a writer I think it’s helped me to guess which questions an author might really want to get asked. So many podcasts solely focus on the writing. As a writer, I know that can be exhausting.
SHORT, SMART, FUN, BAFFLING: An Interview with Brian Allen Carr
It’s infuriating to watch my peer group become less intelligent and more certain as time winds on. It’s supposed to go the other way. The more reality you experience, the less certain you should be.
