In this episode, Shelly dives into the world of Steampunk. Why haven't we dipped into this vibrant life before? We're not sure. Especially since it involves literature, corsets, airships, jetpacks, and Brad Cook, a Steampunk craftsman. Join us!

Shelly and L checked off one item on their 2020 to-do list: Do a public reading. We stop to chat about the experience (among other things) and to discuss prep tips for any on-stage debut.

We bring back one of our favorite literary agents, Stephanie Hansen, to discuss the other side of the words she loves: Writing. Join us as Stephanie celebrates her new novella, Altered Helix, and shares what it's like to walk the line between her agenting and writing worlds.
