The Shining Moon Podscast
Sep. 30th, 2023 05:52 pmI have been incredibly remiss in posting about this!
An online friend of mine, Deborah L. Davitt, recently started up a new podcast called "Shining Moon: A Speculative Fiction Podcast." She's got a really interesting format; each episode gathers together a few writers to discuss first a topic, then their own stories that relate to the topic, then someone else's story that similarly fits the theme.
I've been on two episodes so far, hence being incredibly remiss in taking this long to mention it. (I blame the fact that I was first running, and then recovering from, the Kickstarter.) The good news is, that means you now have multiple episodes to sample! My two thus far are "Literary vs. Genre" and Alternate History vs. Secret History -- I swear, they're not all framed as "X vs. Y;" I'll be on one about worldbuilding about a month from now. There are two episodes on translations and writing in English as a second language, one on hard SF, one on game writing, one on speculative poetry; there's also one on "Reading and the Working Writer," as the podcast also touches sometimes on the life of a writer as well as the craft itself.
If you are someone for whom podcasts make up part of your media diet, I highly recommend this one! Even if you're not a writer yourself, you might find interest in hearing people dissect different angles of the speculative fiction genres.
