    Ian and I discuss what it's been like working with Sam Raimi so far in the well-known director adapting Roger's short story, The House on Ashley Avenue. We also discuss his origins in horror, his collection of short stories, Every House is Haunted, his recent book deals, the Blacklands, and his latest novel, Sycamore.

    041 - Counted With The Dead by Peter O'Keefe
    Dec 10 2024
    Peter O'Keefe started his career working with George R. Romero on the television series Tales from the Darkside. His recent novel retells the classic Frankenstein story told within the dreary apocalyptic landscape of late 90s Detroit. We discuss the corpse that was Detroit during the 90s, his time writing scripts, his short movies, and Counted with the Dead.

  • 040 - Walking Behind David Surface

    040 - Walking Behind David Surface
    Nov 26 2024
    Thank you to everyone for your patience. Here's my conversation with David Surface. We discuss incorporating real life into your fictional stories, our favourite writers, and his collection, These Things That Walk Behind Me.

    David Surface is the author of two collections of stories, Terrible Things and These Things That Walk Behind Me, and co-authored the novel Angel Falls with Julia Rust. His stories fall into different horror sub-genres: ghostly tales, creature feathers, the weird, and the strange. In this discussion, we discuss how real-life situations and people make it into his fiction, how he approaches writing, co-authoring a novel with his wife, Julia Rust, and what authors and books he enjoys reading.

    His work on Amazon: https://www.amazon.com/stores/David-Surface/author/B087H2GNJ2

  • 039 - Cryptid War with Eric S Brown

    039 - Cryptid War with Eric S Brown
    Oct 31 2024
    There were some audio issues I forgot to mention before this episode. Eric lives in one of the areas where Hurricane Helene hit, and his internet is still suffering the consequences. It gets worse near the end. I hope that you enjoy despite this issue.
    Eric S. Brown is the author of more than 100 books. He writes in many different genres. I know him from his Bigfoot War books, along with some other cryptid work. But he also writes science fiction, westerns, action adventure, and pretty much everything else. It's a pleasure to be able to sit down and talk with him finally.

    037 - The Dark Tower with Syn Pt 6 - Song of Susannah
    Sep 24 2024
    Song of Susannah was difficult to discuss, mostly because of its structure, but Syn and I still had a lot of fun discussing it.
