This is a cosy chat with comedy writer turned author, Richard Sparks. We chat about his start in life as a writer and he throws out some names of comedians that most in the UK will of heard of and maybe even some in the US. Then there's his hard-core RPG - Richard is a gamer and it's this hobby that led him to write his first novel. For more info - https://www.richardsparks.com

Craig is an author of a fantasy adventure series. He's new to writing and publishing, so we talk about both and the exciting storyline of his book, The Kint.

Audio is taken from the video cast of Behind The Pen. Kelly and Richard co-authored a children's book called Lucy & the Lake Monster. Think of The Lock Ness Monster; this is America's version. And just like Nessie, there have been hundreds of sightings of Champ. With Richard being an actor and director, making a film based on the book was the next step. A perfect collaboration to bring Champ to life.   Amazon: https://www.amazon.com/Lucy-Lake-Mons... Barnes and Noble: https://www.barnesandnoble.com/w/lucy...

Imagine a writer creating a world with as much detail as one of Tolkien's worlds. Now imagine it not just being a world but a multiverse. Do you know how much work would go into creating something like that?  Now imagine this world is not just written in books, but the story is made into a series of comics and atmospheric instrumental music on top of that. You really need to meet Hunter, the man Behind the Pen. https://www.archivesoftheskullking.com/ https://twitter.com/SkullkingTC https://www.instagram.com/skullkingtc/ https://www.facebook.com/hunter.lewandowski.94

Yay we did it!!!   #NaPodPoMo  completed! And to go out with a band. I chat with multi-award-winning, best-selling prolific author Victoria Saccenti. First, I got confused and didn't realise at the time that this was my last podcast for #NaPodPoMo, and then we chatted about dog breeds. Yep, it's gonna be one of those shows.  We do get to some hot #fantasy #novels and some #hot and #spicy #BDSM and then get into my genre and go #dark. And to think this #lady started her writing career off with sweet romances. Nah, there is nothing too sweet about any of Victoria's books. They all have intense drama and messages and are all page-turners. We discuss what goes into #writing a #book and the stages it needs to go to until it's finally on the shelves, and I ask Victoria how she can jump from one fiction #genre #series, write the book and then start on a new book for a different #fiction series. Come and meet the super-talented, Victoria Saccenti, the lady Behind The Pen.

First, a poet, now a contracted author, next - going indie. I had such a laugh with Samantha. If anyone can call their debut series, Menopausal Superheros, has to have a good sense of humour. It's about time someone wrote about not being your average superhero and not your average size. I love that Samantha was willing to go out of the box, which paid off. Find out what else she's up to, and we covered so many different topics I can't go through them all. https://bit.ly/SamanthaBryant https://www.samanthabryant.com

There is a big connection between role-playing games and writing fiction; Sean will happily explain it as he enjoys doing both. Sean is also a blogger and published in an anthology; another is coming out next year. He also has his debut fiction novella coming out early next year, which he's excited about, and I'm excited for him. So much so, that I make sure to give him a few marketing tips. Sean has been a part of the writing community for a while now and even hosts, writing sprints, which are very well-received and much-needed. We also discuss, Choose Your Own Adventure. Whatever happened to those books? https://www.thewickedboys.com/ https://zer0meansyouredead.wordpress.com #roleplay #choosyourownadventure #fantasy #scifi #blogger #writingsprints #publishing #marketing #podcaster #podcasting #podcast #BehindThePen #AuthorAssist #KarinaKantas #SeanHillman
