   Analyzing Our Problematic Faves with Jill Baguchinsky

   Happy Sunday! It’s been a while! I can’t think of a better way to ring in October than with another conversation with Jill Baguchinsky, this time about her Wuthering Heights inspired novel May The Dead Keep You (which hit shelves in April). Jill and I previously got to chat in 2024 about her other novel So Witches We Became - another apt pick for this early fall season!! - and I was SO excited to catch up and have her back on the show. I hope you enjoy, because I know that I certainly did! Check out our last episode from 2024!

   Fall For Your Enemy... What's The Worst That Could Happen? with Leslie Vedder

   Happy Monday!! I was traveling yesterday (and what a journey that was) so I’m bringing you our final episode of August 2026 a little late, but it’s more than worth it. Leslie Vedder’s The Siren’s Kiss, is just what I’ve been looking for as summer dips into fall, mixing together the worlds of sirens and pirates with a dash of sapphic love and romance. Plus, we had such a blast chatting so I think you’ll really enjoy!

   Writing Fantasy With Romance, Intrigue, and a Little Betrayal with Meghan Le Fay

   Happy Sunday!! For what will probably be our final episode of August 2026, I got to chat with Meghan Le Fay about book one in her Dragonbound Chronicles, Wings of Life! Meghan had both a long road and quite a fast trip on her journey to publishing Wings of Life, and we waded through it all, if you’re in need of a fantastical escape as summer begins to wind to a close, look no further and enjoy the ride!
