Welcome to Working Title, a podcast where two writer pals stumble through books we love looking for lessons to help us through our own writing process. Like our podcast, we are a work in progress...
This week on [Working Title] we talk about the only novel with donut-making space aliens, cursed violins, and fierce trans pride: LIGHT FROM UNCOMMON STARS by Ryka Aoki! Join Dana, Leah, and special guest Mackenzie as we explore the ultimate genre mash-up, emotionally resonant food scenes, and prose as brutal as it is hopeful.
You can find Mackenzie over on Instagram at @bookish_black_hole, read their blog at colourmeread.com, or connect on Twitter at @itnotMackenzie
