Episode 50: Winter Solstice Newsletter 2020
This episode of the Folklore & Fiction podcast was first published as a newsletter in December 2020. I'm recording it as a supplemental podcast now so that new listeners and subscribers have an opportunity to engage with the material. At the summer and winter solstices, I mimic the sun and pause to reflect on my own creative work. In this edition, I'm discussing myth (https://csmaccath.com/blog/what-is-a-myth) in fiction with my short story "T Is for Three (at the End of All Things)," which was published in the C is for Chimera (https://www.amazon.com/Chimera-Alphabet-Anthologies-Book-ebook/dp/B01CO4LY72/csma-20) anthology. Because the story is only about a thousand words long, and because it's a creation myth, I'm reading the whole story in the podcast. Hope you enjoy it.

Episode 49: What is performance?
This episode of the Folklore & Fiction podcast was first published as a newsletter in November 2020. I'm recording it as a supplemental podcast now so that new listeners and subscribers have an opportunity to engage with the material. In it, I'm writing about performance with help from scholars Dan Ben-Amos, Roger D. Abrahams, Richard Bauman, and others, author and playwright William Shakespeare, and the McGahan Lees Irish Dance Academy. I'm also exploring possible uses of performance in storytelling.
