No, let's be real, this guy is pretty damn chill, and a terrific writer to boot!

I personally also enjoyed the start of Eden & Echo, but hey, it's cyberpunk, so... 🙂

Hey hey everyone,

I've been waiting a long time for this inteview, ever since I Read Tower of Somnus last year. Cale not only tells us about his books and what informed his writing of them, but also how to balance multiple timelines, and how he juggles work and writing. He doesn't just write Tower of Somnus either, but also an amazing story about a young Kobold who really wands to be a dragon. Go check them out at the links below!

This week, we got one of my favorite guests, and dear friend SavingThrow on the Podcast, talking about writing her book So When Am I a Hero?

Besides being an amazing writer, she also used to be a lead narrative designer for Ubisoft, working on games such as The Division 1 and Starlink!

We talk about system apocalypses, hope, depression, and of course: Writing!

-------------------------------------------

Hey hey everyone,

so this week we have a special, because Ripple System 5 is coming out in 3 days from now, and I AM SO STOKED, YOU GUYS! In honor of this release, I interviewed the one, the only, Kyle Kirrin!

We're talking about basically everything from his time using a chainsaw on a daily basis to how he enjoys life in the wilds more than in the city, but we also get some great writing advice and insights into how he came up with Frank and the way his books sustain their tension even though they're "just" VRMMORPG books. Oh and we gush about Travis Baldree a lot.

So basically, if you love Shadeslinger, this is the podcast for you!

P.S. We did have a bit of an audio issue throughout the podcast, which made it hard for me to edit this episode. So if the quality is a bit off, I'm sorry!
