High Plains Book Award WINNER, Craig Lancaster on BEING a WRITER // LITerally Podcast
Craig Lancaster, winner of the 2022 High Plains Book Award in Fiction, joined us on the podcast from Montana. Craig has so many insights when it comes to BEING a writer, to believing in it as a career. It was really refreshing to chat with him about how 'writer' can be our profession, and how life weaves and changes and that it's all a good thing. I met Craig in Billings this fall, and we became instant friends. - Kase

We talked about a lot more than writing in this episode with author Taylor Garcia. We jumped into everything writers think about when writing that readers probably never know! Writing isn’t just putting words on paper. It’s a life. We delve into all of this.

It was really, really awesome to talk to Larry Feign about his new novel that took years to research and to write. It’s an absolutely beautiful book, inside and out. I learned more than I ever expected. That’s amazing historical fiction.
-
Amanda Kabak, author of the newly released novel titled UPENDED, joined us to talk about the book. It was great to talk about the evolution of this book, the characters, and their motivations. Great for anyone interested in novel building!

LITerally Podcast EP. 52 - David Gessner: Quiet Desperation, Savage Delight: Sheltering with Thoreau in the Age of Crises
David Gessner joined us to talk all things Henry David Thoreau, thoroughly, while talking about the craft of writing nonfiction and writing a book during the pandemic. Such a great conversation! -
This month we discuss NNedi Okorafor's Remote Control, described on her website as, "science fiction of the Africanfuturist strain that knows aliens exist, quietly shows how technology is influenced by culture, features a powerful yet deeply-pained female protagonist, and wonders about the role of corporations in rural Africa."
So grab a bourbon and sip along with us. This selection was loved by the hosts. Tune in to find out why.
Cheers!

"If you like plots & boobies, not the book for you." - Sean Davis
Kase's pick, Rendezvous with Rama, is a science fiction novel by Arthur C. Clarke. Set in the 2130s, astronauts explore a cylindrical alien starship. How does this 1973 classic hold up?
-
Full of welcoming metaphors and more depth than anticipated, JAWS, the book, surprised us in a few ways. As Leigh noted, "Even when it's problematic...it's still trying to do stuff."
Other notes, Kase finally imbibed, we endured symphony practice, and a tree fell on Seans internet (true story). Otherwise, smooth livestream and podcast.
Enjoy!

Sometimes, it's just best to sit back, listen, and learn. Going into my interview with Paisley Rekdal, that was my plan, and I'm happy I stuck (mostly) to it because there's no reason to mess up a good hour of great, researched insight with my fumbling. So fortunate to have Utah's Poet Laureate and author of APPROPRIATE (and many, many other books of poetry and nonfiction) on LITerally.
