Now free to all! Matts Sini (@teo_ess) and Fresta (@newfacenhell) of @getting_lit_pod join me to talk Italo Calvino's masterpiece If on a winter's night a traveler: the spirit of reading, when postmodern style gets it right, the origin of story, and much much more. link below
The mighty and prolific E Rathke (@radicalydde) joined me to talk about the forthcoming release of the BROKEN KATANA omnibus (support!), what Broken River is up to, resisting the algorithm, and much, much more. Link below!
Icymi, a bot-free recording of Jack London's "Love of Life" for your listening pleasure. Betrayal, survival, starvation, and salvation. With a dash of London's trademark wolf stuff. Link below.
Icymi. We know Poe as master of the macabre, but this might be the story of his which unsettles me the most. INcisive, eery, Modern…are we still allowed to say Lynchian? Here’s bot-free recording of “The Man of the Crowd.’madmethodpod.com/podcast/man…
Icymi, @laethcore joined me for a conversation about jazz, writing as discovery, listening for the voice, and his singular work, including his most recent novel SKETCHES OF ALICE. Buy his book! Link to episode below.
Now free to all. The great @raviddice joined me to talk perhaps the strangest novel of the Vietnam war. MEDITATIONS IN GREEN: David’s personal experience studying w/ Wright, the consciousness of the jungle, the chaos of total information, and much, much more. Link below.

Icymi. In episode 1: MOBY-DICK. Not just the craft, symbology, and meaning, but also the book's context in the American Renaissance, influence from the Burned-Over District, spooky coincidences, and just how close the Great American Novel is to being Lovecraftian. Link below.

The Earthen Dark by @bradkelly is a compelling look into the darkness of man and the eternal unconscious of the world itself. I was lucky enough to read it this weekend and would recommend it. Brad hosts the @madmethodpod podcast and we were lucky to have him as a guest (link below). Check him out and pick up a copy of The Earthen Dark (link also below)👇
For your listening pleasure, a bot-free recording of the Mark Twain rags-to-riches classic "The Million Pound Bank Note." Link below.

Finished!! Read on a combination of recommendations from @madmethodpod and @AmericanGwyn .
Incredible prose. Basically, the entire story exists in the subtext. Really awe inspiring writing. Quickly one of my all time favorites.
