LITerally Ep. 61 - Kathryn Wilder, Desert Chrome: Water, A Woman, And Wild Horses In The West
LITerally Ep. 60 - High Plains Book Award WINNER, Craig Lancaster on BEING a WRITER
We talked with Adrian Stumpp about his book The Chemical Marriage. He told us his inspiration for this book was dull; it was anything but dull. It was awesome. You'll have to listen to understand.
We talked about a lot more than writing in this episode with author Taylor Garcia. We jumped into everything writers think about when writing that readers probably never know! Writing isnβt just putting words on paper. Itβs a life. We delve into all of this.
Heather Mateus Sappenfield joins us on LITerally to talk about the challenge behind switching genres, voice changes, and viewing the world through the eyes of a child. It's a good one!
Marvel Comics author Ben Percy on Bourbon, Beer and Books
Teresa Dovalpage, friend and author, joined us again. If sheβd join us, weβd have her every week. Luckily enough, she just keeps publishing, giving us an excuse to have her on!
Essayist and poet Rob Carney on the podcast to talk about his new essay collection and his new poetry collection. We had fun in the Banyan one!
It was really, really awesome to talk to Larry Feign about his new novel that took years to research and to write. Itβs an absolutely beautiful book, inside and out.
Amanda Kabak, author of the newly released novel titled UPENDED, joined us to talk about the book. It was great to talk about the evolution of this book, the characters, and their motivations.
David Gessner joined us to talk all things Henry David Thoreau, thoroughly, while talking about the craft of writing nonfiction and writing a book during the pandemic. Such a great conversation!
This month we discuss NNedi Okorafor's Remote Control, described on her website as, "science fiction of the Africanfuturist strain that knows aliens exist, quietly shows how technology is influenced by culture, features a powerful yet deeply-pained female protagonist, and wonders about the role of corporations in rural Africa."
Kase's pick, Rendezvous with Rama, is a science fiction novel by Arthur C. Clarke. Set in the 2130s, astronauts explore a cylindrical alien starship. How does this 1973 classic hold up?
Full of welcoming metaphors and more depth than anticipated, JAWS, the book, surprised us in a few ways. As Leigh noted, "Even when it's problematic...it's still trying to do stuff.β
Sometimes, it's just best to sit back, listen, and learn. Going into my interview with Paisley Rekdal, that was my plan, and I'm happy I stuck (mostly) to it because there's no reason to mess up a good hour of great, researched insight with my fumbling. So fortunate to have Utah's Poet Laureate and author of APPROPRIATE
Bourbon, Beer & Books Ep. 2 - The Sun Also Rises, gender fluidity, impotence, bull fighting, and whiskey Where does that type of trophy-hunting/prove-your-masculinity fit in today's literary scene?
From across the globe and from 12 hours in the future, Bradford Phelan joined us on the LITerally Podcast. Let's just say that I enjoyed the 'heck' out his book When the Color Started. Grab it.
LITerally podcast host Kase Johnstun along with co-hosts Leigh Camacho Rourks, Sean Davis, and Tia Brown discuss the phenomenon that was Twilight.
Today we spoke with Valerie Miner, author of numerous fiction, nonfiction, and poetry collections.
Think of this interview with Michael Kasdan, sports and special projects editor at The Good Men Project, like a time capsule from pre-election, pre-vaccine interview.
Authors M. Ellen Dash and Ali Meeks talked with the LITerally Podcast about their new book Conquer Your Fear of the Triathlon Swim.
Adrienne Christian shared poetry from her new book with us on the LITerally Podcast.
Sian Griffiths, writer and sometimes co-host of the literally podcast, joined us in the time of Covid, only a few miles from her house, via Zoom to talk about her new novel, Scrapple.
It's been a long time coming, but has time really passed over the last few months? Has it really? Here is our fun Literary Death Match Podcast from last year's event.
Sharon Harrigan joined us for the second time for her debut novel Half. It was our first time recording since we last saw each other before shutting it down for Covid. This was a great way for LITerally to jump back in!
Sunni Brown Wilkinsonβs poetry has been published or is forthcoming in Crab Orchard Review, Adirondack Review, Sugar House Review, Haydenβs Ferry Review, and other journals and anthologies. She is the author of The Marriage of the Moon and the Field (Black Lawrence Press 2019), and her poem βRodeoβ won New Ohio Reviewβs inaugural NORward Poetry Prize.
Poet and friend Laura Stott joined us in the Banyan Studio to read and talk about poems from her new book The Blue Nudes. Itβs a great conversation about inspiration and verse and parenting and teaching!
Heather Sappenfield joined us via radio network. She bounced off satellites to join us. Well, she didn't, but I love that we got to talk to her from long distance. We chatted about writing, about the YA business, and about imagining worlds.
