Über diesen Titel

A fiction writer and recovering academic seeks craft lessons in classic literature. All works are in the public domain and available on https://www.gutenberg.org. The talks are 5-10 minutes, perfect for today's on-the-go author. Earlier and even more pedantic versions of these talks are available on my blog, swerveandvanish.blogspot.com.

The podcast is currently on hiatus, but please enjoy the archived episodes!

    The Hound of the Baskervilles: More about Character in the Mystery Genre
    May 12 2023

    You know that old saw: genre fiction is about plot, literary about character. But in The Hound of the Baskervilles--and, I suspect, in most satisfying mystery stories--the complexities of character drive the plot forward. Also, an update on the progress of my literary mystery novel.
