Året i bild Vi summerar skräckåret 2023 genom att utse årets det ena och årets det andra, i gammal beprövad Vargtimmen-tradition, trots upprepade bedyranden under året att det är dags att uppdatera sig till ett mer hanterligt format. Men förändring förutsätter risktagande, och risktagande kan innebära obehagligheter. Så vi gör såhär nu; fortsättning följer om tre veckor igen. Tomas frågar sig om det snygga citatet "It preys on the weak and the wounded" i den onödigt svaga The Boogeyman är en stöld från eller en hyllning till Session 9, och Lars önskar sig en ”consumer's cut” av Evil Dead Rise som klippt bort referenspisset till ettan i anslaget och börjar direkt med den ursnygga titelskylten, gärna dubbelt så länge (om det går). Vi pratar också om: vårt sjöslag till 40-årsfest, Daniel Garptoft när han sjunger ”Sabotage” karaoke, Jason Vorhees, Chucky, Den onda dockan, Fredagen del 13 del II, Susan var är du?, Disco Classics, en kommande svensk skräckfilm som vi inte kan säga något om på förhand, Mike Flanagan, Succession, Edgar Allan Poe, Stephen King, The Fall of the House of Usher, Hanteringen av odöda, Mattias Fyhr, Svensk skräcklitteratur del 2, John Ajvide Lindqvist, Mats Strandberg, Yvonne Leffler, Kult, Sarah Snook, Run Rabbit Run, Magnus Jäverling, The Babadook, The Others, Alice i underlandet, Lake Mungo, Twin Peaks, perspektivering, William Faulkner, Elizabeth Moss, Choose or Die, Robert Englund, The Pale Blue Eye, The Pale Blue Eye, Christian Bale, Vaknatten, författaren Karin, Creepypodden #208: Familjekultur, Hell Maria full av nåd, Sofia Albertsson Göthberg, The Boogeyman, Rob Savage, Host, Marin Ireland, The Dark and the Wicked, Vietnamese Gothic, Trang Thanh Tran, She is a Haunting, detta med snygga titlar, detta med snygga dedikationer, årets julkalender Trolltider, Sagan om ringen, True Detective, The Trickle-Down Effect, god kulturs inneboende lust att gå halva vägen med nya konsumenter, Madeleine Bäck, Evil Dead Rise, Lee Cronin, Sami Raimi, Rob Tapert, Naturon Demonto, Necronomicon, deadites, Henrik Möller, Apokalyps Malmö, Vertigo Förlag, Bödeln från Malmö och Udda Ting.

För första gången på 157 avsnitt gästas "Hemma hos Strage" inte av en musiker, även om Bret Easton Ellis faktiskt spelade keyboard i tre band när han gick på college. Det är som författare till böckerna "Less than zero", "American psycho", "Glamorama" och nya "Skärvorna" han blivit världsberömd. Strage hälsade på Bret i hans lägenhet på 13th Street i New York för ganska exakt 25 år sedan. Nu kommer Bret till Kungsholmen och pratar om tidens flykt, om kristallklara tonårsminnen, om att dölja sin sexualitet i high school och samtidigt dejta skolans snyggaste tjej, om att förtjusas av Kim Wildes likgiltiga perfektion i "Kids in America"-videon och vilja skriva på samma sätt, om hur det är att leva med en oerhört woke generation Y-pojkvän och om hur mycket som är sant i de depraverade skildringarna av en uppläsningsturné i boken "Lunar Park", där han röker crack och blir attackerad av en hund efter att ha försökt få den att "gå ner" på ett medvetslöst fan (spoilervarning: "Everything happened!").

Editor's Note: We recommend checking out our VALIS Incident episode to get extra insight into the subject matter before diving into this one. We have dedicated this episode to the memory of Phil's good friend and fellow writer Radell Faraday Nelson 1931-2022. R.I.P. Greetings, PKD fans. David Gill joins the usual DickHeads back to discuss PKD's religious mystery novel VALIS. Horselover Fat is on a quest to find out why a pink laser beam of pure knowledge entered his brain one day and now he has strange visions and preternatural knowledge of events around him. Is Horselover a genius or a madman? Has his Rhipidon Society really found the trail to the messiah? We attempt to figure it all out. Plus: Langhorne visits a chocolate factory. Gonad Kid. And navel-gazing with Sigmund Freud. •Our Patreon ►► http://www.patreon.com/LanghorneJTweed •Electric Larryland Discord ►► https://discord.com/channels/557458722268643329 •David's YouTube Channel ►► https://www.youtube.com/user/Veganrevwithzombies/ Find David Gill: •Total Dick-Head Blog ►► http://totaldickhead.blogspot.com/ PKD News: •NYT Top PKD ►► https://www.nytimes.com/2022/10/26/books/best-philip-k-dick-novels.html •Tor Severance and the PKD ►► https://www.tor.com/author/david-agranoff/ •Within you, Without You: Philip & Jane Dick ►► https://www.tor.com/author/david-gill/ Dicklike Suggestions: David's A.

Es sollte das Literaturereignis des Jahres werden. Nach zwölf Jahren erschien der neue Roman von Bret Easton Ellis, der in den 90er-Jahren als aufstrebender Autor von «American Psycho» oder «Glamorama» für seine bitterböse Abrechnung mit der Gegenwart gefeiert wurde. Sein neues Buch mit dem Titel «The Shards» wurde als Meisterwerk angekündigt –und enttäuscht. Nicht zum ersten Mal können wir einem sogenannten Popliteraten beim Scheitern zuschauen. Ist dieses Genre vielleicht nicht mehr zeitgemäss?In einer neuen Folge des täglichen Podcasts «Apropos» spricht Literaturkritikerin Nora Zukker über Popliteraten wie Bret Easton Ellis im mittleren Alter und warum sie trotzdem noch lange nicht aus der Zeit gefallen sind. Gastgeber ist Philipp Loser.Mehr zum Thema:Buchkritik zu Bret Easton Ellis: https://www.tagesanzeiger.ch/shards-bret-easton-ellis-neues-buch-kritik-rezension-952609054001

Originally from Tasmania but having lived in London, Europe and Naarm in the last five years, Clare Choveaux's music taste spans from uplifting house, to heavy techno and ravey breaks. The underlying theme within her sonic aesthetic is inspired by the rave scene, drawing inspiration from the likes of FJAAK and Roza Terenzi. A regular feature at a Novel showcase, Clare has also performed at Glamorama, Electric, The Third Day, and Naarm's newly opened ATET.

Turbo Thot encapsulates all things up-beat, driving, and high-NRG. Swerving between an array of genres, her creative beginnings came in the form of her passion for hip-hop, and Southern trap. Her style has evolved into one that's optimal for the club, influenced by Seth Troxler, The Martinez Brothers, and Loco Dice, traversing tech-house, disco, indie-dance, and tribal textures. As a long-standing resident at Section 8, Glamorama and Melbourne's Music Room, Turbo Thot's output is one that pulls listeners onto the dance-floor, daring them not to lose themself. @twerkshopmelbourne ====================================================== Upcoming Novel events: Goodroom with Made in Paris Sun 10th Jul, 3 PM - 3 AM Electric Bar Lineup: Made in Paris, Emma Renée, Gumm, Miss Farina, Nick Young & Rob Anthony, Scotty Pesticide, Shanti + Spargo www.facebook.com/events/601325171209153/ Novel Takeover - Bloom Sat 16th Jul, 10 PM - 5 AM Bloom Geelong Lineup: Bella Claxton, Daddy Cool, Gumm, Luke Hovey, Marli + Willem www.facebook.com/events/733103737891458/ Bella Claxton Presents Hyper Hype Fri 5th Aug, 9 PM - 3 AM 524 Flinders Lineup: Bella Claxton, DJ Belle, Bones, Mistrdean + Sam Alfred b2b Ricky Nord www.facebook.com/events/1177707269691300/ Darklove pres.

Bosco's style draws strongly from his disco and hip hop roots, which is only one part of the Glamorama mainstay's finely curated sets filled with enigmatic twists and turns. From jazz-infused house through to techno rompers, he covers all the bases. Not only has he frequented the majority of Melbourne's nightlife, but he has toured his wares interstate, making appearances at nationally acclaimed festivals from Splendour in the Grass to Strawberry Fields and Let Them Eat Cake.

STAY WILD KEEP READING – EVA BESTER Un podcast animé par Sylvia Minne Durée épisode : 00 :52 :41 © READING WILD 2021 Dans ce quinzième épisode de Stay Wild Keep Reading Eva Bester se confie au micro de Sylvia Minne sur son rapport à la lecture ; et quelques uns des livres qui l'ont marquée. RÉSUMÉ DE L'ÉPISODE Eva Bester a su créer un style en imposant le sien. Après huit années merveilleuses de "Remèdes à la mélancolie", elle nous promet pour cette rentrée d'essayer de trouver les clés de "L'embellie", chaque dimanche (même jour, même heure) sur France Inter. Si Eva Bester pratique au quotidien la consolation par les arts, dans sa pharmacopée, la lecture est reine. Rencontre avec celle pour qui : « une des raisons de rester en vie, vraiment très forte, c'est tous les livres qui restent à lire » Extraits de l'entretien "J'ai toujours adoré lire. Je me souviens de la griserie quand j'étais petite, l'école nous avait emmenés dans une bibliothèque municipale pour enfant «A l'heure joyeuse». Et c'était incroyable pour moi d'avoir une carte de bibliothèque et de pouvoir prendre 10 ouvrages qu'on ne connaissait pas et qu'on pouvait rapporter chez soi, on avait l'impression d'avoir des trésors, c'était fou" "Je crois que quand j'étais petite je voulais être Oscar Wilde. Je le trouvais extraordinaire. C'était un dandy incroyablement élégant, très érudit, intelligent avec beaucoup d'esprit, avec une vraie sensibilité humaniste… C'était mon idole." "Huysmans c'est l'un de mes chouchous (…). C'est une merveille "A rebours" "Bret Easton Ellis je l'adore. Pour moi Glamorama, Luna Park ce sont des chef-d'œuvre (…). Je trouve qu'il décrit magnifiquement la violence et la brutalité du monde qui nous entoure, tout en étant excessivement drôle." "J'ai des piles de livres partout; je suis envahie par les livres il y en a partout chez moi, je me prends les pieds dedans; à chaque fois que je les range un tout petit peu une semaine plus tard il y en a à nouveau qui s'amoncellent à côté de mon lit ; je peux pas faire autrement. J'adore ça, ça m'excite." Quelques auteurs/livres cités dans cet épisode PEF (Le prince des mots tordus) Oscar Wilde (Le portrait de Dorian Gray) Gustave Flaubert (Correspondances, Madame Bovary) Bret Easton Ellis (American Psycho, Glamorama…) Joris Karl Huysmans (A rebours) Franz Kafka (Le journal) Woody Allen (Dieu, Shakespeare & moi, Pour en finir une bonne fois pour toutes avec la culture...) Pierre Dac (L'os à moelle) Stephen King (Misery, Marche ou crève) Knut Amsum (La faim) Dostievski (Les carnets du sous sol) Jean-Pierre Martinet (Jérôme) Albert Cohen (Belle du seigneur) Virginia Woolf (Orlando, Vers le phare) Luke Rhinehart (L'homme dé) Steeve Stesich (Karoo ) Charles Bukowski (Pulp) Raymond Chandler (Le grand sommeil) Mais aussi Claude Ponti, Jean de la La Fontaine, Baudelaire, Georges Perec, Michel Houellebecq, Cioran, Alphonse Allais, Chuck Palaniuk, Françoise Sagan, Hélène Giannecchini, Madame de Sévigné.. En conclusion de ce podcast, Eva Bester se prête au jeu du questionnaire lecture de Reading Wild pour nous délivrer quelques prescriptions littéraires, avant de lire à voix haute un extrait de "L'homme dé" de Luke Rhinehart.

Chip Kidd is an American graphic designer best known for his book covers. Based in New York City, Kidd is arguably the most famous dust jacket designers in the world. He has been credited by many as having spawned "a revolution in the art of America book packaging,” despite having no recognizable style. In fact, he says that “A signature look is crippling… [because] the simplest and most effective solutions aren't dictated by style.” It has been said by many that the history of book design can be split into two eras: before Kidd and after. He went to work at Knopf in 1986. Today he is associate art director and freelances widely, designing in total, some 75 dust jackets a year. We met in his offices at Knopf in New York to discuss his book Chip Kidd: Book 2. In so doing we talk about Meryl Streep, Haruki Murakami Martin Amis, the Eisner Awards, French kissing Neil Gaiman and connecting with authors, Alfred and Blanche Knopf, Sonny Mehta, D.A. Dwiggins, Paul Bacon, Geek Love, die cuts, Glamorama, the Yale Review, Chip's late husband poet and Yale Review editor J. D. McClatchy, Chris Ware, the Factory record label, Peter Seville, New Order album covers, the importance of dust jackets and identities, ebooks, death, being paid for your ideas and much more. * This interview was recorded in October, 2019. Sonny Mehta died in December, 2019.

The success of his Love EP on Fine and In My Mind EP on Faces really took him from well-known secret to an established booking across many clubs. @tilman ==================================================== Upcoming Novel events: Friday 13th September: Darklove with Damon Jee @ Glamorama, Melbourne www.facebook.com/events/949489555398164/ Friday 20th September: Novel presents Ben Pearce @ Glamorama, Melbourne www.facebook.com/events/2383406108443759/ Thursday 26th September: Novel Presents Stephan Bodzin (Live 2 Hrs) + Made in Paris @ Thornbury Social Club, Melbourne www.facebook.com/events/646021399195048/ Friday 27th September: Novel & Division Agency Presents Stephan Bodzin (Live 2 Hrs +) @ The Enmore Theatre, Sydney www.facebook.com/events/2360909624191640/ Friday 4th October: stranger with Function @ Brown Alley, Melbourne www.facebook.com/events/1222638251241897/ Friday 4th October: Darklove with The Drifter @ Glamorama, Melbourne www.facebook.com/events/357587745117313/ Friday 18th October: Red Bull Music Festival Melbourne: 1800-DOOF /w Chez Damier.

Starting his career in the early nineties, Damon Jee has followed an unconventional path towards becoming a globally renowned DJ. The last two years have seen a surge in his profile, no doubt due to the effective simplicity displayed in his productions, it is the sort of tracks that can ignite any flagging dancefloor. His remix of Pardon Moi's 'Power To The People' was considered by many DJs as one of last year's biggest club tracks. But it was his recent Beatport-charting release on Jennifer Cardini's Correspondant records which introduced him to a whole new audience. Further online videos showing artists such as Maceo Plex and Carl Cox rinsing his tracks to thousands of people only added to the mounting interest in Damon Jee. He will be making his Australian debut in Melbourne for the launch of new night Darklove before flying to Syndey to play Goodbar - and the anticipation for his arrival is very real. @damon-jee ==================================================== Upcoming Novel events: Friday 13th September: Darklove with Damon Jee @ Glamorama, Melbourne www.facebook.com/events/949489555398164/ Friday 20th September: Novel presents Ben Pearce @ Glamorama, Melbourne www.facebook.com/events/2383406108443759/ Thursday 26th September: Novel Presents Stephan Bodzin (Live 2 Hrs) + Made in Paris @ Thornbury Social Club, Melbourne www.facebook.com/events/646021399195048/ Friday 27th September: Novel & Division Agency Presents Stephan Bodzin (Live 2 Hrs +) @ The Enmore Theatre, Sydney www.facebook.com/events/2360909624191640/ Friday 4th October: stranger with Function @ Brown Alley, Melbourne https://www.facebook.com/events/1222638251241897/ Friday 4th October: Darklove with The Drifter @ Glamorama, Melbourne https://www.facebook.com/events/357587745117313/ Friday 18th October: Red Bull Music Festival Melbourne: 1800-DOOF /w Chez Damier.

Pat Carroll is Sydney composer/producer exploring the introspective side of electronic music. With music grounded between electroacoustic theory and groove-based music, Carroll's sound is characterised by gradually transforming soundscapes often behind strong, driving percussion. His recent single ‘Plateau’ is a beautiful piece of electronica that has seen him receive comparisons to producers like Jon Hopkins and Four Tet. Pat Carroll is definitely one of Australia’s most promising producers. Tracklist: Kollektiv Turmstrasse - Ribbon Reef Etapp Kyle - Sakura Olafur Arnalds - Partial (Max Cooper’s ‘99 Remix) Patrice Bäumel - Sorcery Tronus - Xeos As Patria - Hyperborean (In Aeternam Vale V1) Primal Code - Morgana Pat Carroll - Shelter (Unreleased) Sweetland - Redound (Unreleased) Traumer - Quantum @patcarrollmusic ==================================================== Upcoming Novel events: Friday 13th September: Darklove with Damon Jee @ Glamorama, Melbourne www.facebook.com/events/949489555398164/ Friday 20th September: Novel presents Ben Pearce @ Glamorama, Melbourne www.facebook.com/events/2383406108443759/ Thursday 26th September: Novel Presents Stephan Bodzin (Live 2 Hrs) + Made in Paris @ Thornbury Social Club, Melbourne www.facebook.com/events/646021399195048/ Friday 27th September: Novel & Division Agency Presents Stephan Bodzin (Live 2 Hrs +) @ The Enmore Theatre, Sydney www.facebook.com/events/2360909624191640/ Friday 18th October: Red Bull Music Festival Melbourne: 1800-DOOF /w Chez Damier.

Frou Frou is relatively new within the local music scene but has already played at some of the cities most notable nightspots. An avid record collector, and a resident for the Melbourne collective Crate Mates, she’s can be spotted laying some down at Glamorama, Dr. Morse, Boney, Lounge, and Ferdydurke, and even landed an opening slot for Austrian artist Demuja. Her sound has evolved as she has navigated various audiences, scenes and her own personal journey with music. She also produces her own original works, and a track from Frou Frou fuses deep layered house, ambient pads and evolving acid basslines: all features heard consistently within her sets that has its foundations in house, often broken up with funk and hints of disco. @froufroufruity ==================================================== Upcoming Novel events: Saturday 20th July: Red Bull presents: 1800-Doof @ 542 Flinders Street, Melbourne CBD www.facebook.com/events/260789384757389/ Thursday 26th September: Novel Presents Stephan Bodzin (Live 2 Hrs) + Made in Paris @ Thornbury Social Club, Melbourne www.facebook.com/events/646021399195048/ Friday 27th September: Novel & Division Agency Presents Stephan Bodzin (Live 2 Hrs +) @ The Enmore Theatre, Sydney www.facebook.com/events/2360909624191640/ Saturday 7th December: fabric XX 20 with Ricardo Villalobos & Craig Richards @ Venue TBA, Melbourne www.facebook.com/events/1295066143951022/ Wednesday 1st of January: Let Them Eat Cake NYD @ Werribee Mansion (Line-up TBA) ==================================================== Stay in touch: www.facebook.com/weareNovel/
Critique du livre White de Bret Easton Ellis. Une fois n'est pas coutume, Bobo Léon ne sort pas d'une séance ciné mais est dans son salon, sur son canapé, pour vous parler du livre qu'il vient de terminer. Un roman qui est en grande partie consacré au cinéma et au monde hollywoodien après la victoire de Donald TRUMP. Et Bobo a adoré ce livre de Bret Easton Ellis qui est plus q'un essai. Selon Bobo Léon c'est un roman avec des scènes à mourir de rire. "White", le dernier livre de Bret Easton Ellis aux éditions Robert Laffont est un ouvrage très personnel, dans lequel le romancier partage sa vision du monde occidental. Un livre qui fait du bien même si l'auteur ne se mouille pas trop (en tous cas pas autant qu'avant). Cinémaradio adore la façon de parler de Bret Easton Ellis. Sa critique des films, notamment au film MoonLight, sont très intéressantes. Il y a aussi une belle auto critique sur lui (parlant d'ailleurs de son podcast d'interviews). Le livre White qui est paru le 2 mai en France est un petit événement dans le monde du ciné. Pour rappel : Bret Easton Ellis est aussi l'auteur de Moins que Zero (1985) American Psycho (1991), Glamorama (1998) ou Lunar Park (2005). White, un beau livre que Bobo vous recommande dans ce podcast cinéma de Cinémaradio.

His fun yet no-frills brand of electronic music has seen him play at venues including Brown Alley, Revolver Upstairs, Pawn & Co, Prince of Wales, Railway Hotel Brunswick, My Aeon, and Glamorama, supporting the likes of Andhim, Butch, Dubfire, Eagles & Butterflies, Kolsch, Kolombo, Michael Mayer, Oliver Koletzki, Niko Schwind, and Laura Jones.

The brand’s portfolio includes a monthly residency at Ferdydurke (the second Friday of every month) and one-off events at Section 8.

Sean and Katie talk unreliable narrators, terrorist plots, unsettlingly anatomical sex scenes, and whether Victor Ward is as dumb as he looks.
Tom Trago has long been one of the leading lights of the Dutch electronic music underground; a globe-trotting DJ, producer, live performer and label owner who enjoys nothing more than championing both overlooked gems and fresh sounds from his own country. He once claimed that he felt a physical need to make music every day, and it’s hard to think of anyone whose immersion in music is quite as complete. Although now widely considered to be among the top tier of European DJs, capable of working big rooms, intimate spaces and wild festival crowds, Trago’s rise was built on years honing his craft. Not only is he an integral part of the Dekmantel and Rush Hour crews, but he is also production whizz and the go-to DJ if you need to inject a party with some much-needed energy. In fact, if you had to assemble a team of global party starters, Tom Trago would not only be part of the team, he would be an integral member of the team leadership group. @tomtrago ==================================================== Catch Tom Trago at these upcoming events: Saturday 9th February: Secret Warehouse, Sydney (SOLD OUT) Saturday 9th February: Sugar, Adelaide https://www.facebook.com/events/495647187627981/ Sunday 10th February: Nevermind, Perth https://www.facebook.com/events/621549091595799/ Friday 15th February: 121, Wellington https://www.facebook.com/events/288676511851040/ Saturday 16th February: smalltown w/ Axel Boman, George Fitzgerald & Tom Trago @ Caulfield Racecourse, Melbourne https://www.facebook.com/events/1770228636405611/ Saturday 16th February: The Grand Poobah, Tasmania https://www.facebook.com/events/284733705524773/ ==================================================== Upcoming Novel events: Fri, Feb 15th: Novel & Finer Things pres.

The Writer Files: Writing, Productivity, Creativity, and Neuroscience
In this special edition of the show, two writers joined me to opine the death of one of the most influential forms in the history of the written word. I posed the question that many great writers have pondered stretching across the last two centuries … Rainmaker.FM is Brought to You By Discover why more than 80,000 companies in 135 countries choose WP Engine for managed WordPress hosting. Start getting more from your site today! Is the novel dead? And maybe a more up-to-date version of that question is, did the Internet kill books? Of course these are famous — almost cliche — theoretical discussions that writers often chew on over stiff drinks, and they raise hackles for those of us who adore them. What you won’t find here is a highbrow literary dissertation, or even a very strict definition as to what the novel is or isn’t. But you will find a lively discussion between friends who care about the writing life and its future. Robert Bruce is a writer, voice actor, and copywriter, as well as the Vice President of Rainmaker Digital and the guy who runs the Rainmaker.FM podcast network.

Part One Voiceover: Rainmaker FM Kelton Reid: Welcome back to The Writer Files. I’m still your host, Kelton Reid, here to take you on another tour of the habits, habitats, and brains of renowned writers to learn their secrets. But in this edition of the show, two writers joined me to opine the death of one of the most influential forms in the history of the written word. I posed the question that many great writers have pondered stretching across the last two centuries, Is the novel dead? Maybe a more up to date version of that question is, Did the internet kill books? Of course, these are famous almost cliché theoretical discussions that writers often chew on over stiff drinks and they raise the hackles for those of us who adore them. What you won’t find here is a highbrow literary dissertation, or even a very strict definition as to what the novel is or isn’t but you will find a lively discussion between friends who care about the writing life and it’s future. Robert Bruce is a renowned voice actor, poet, fiction author, and copywriter, as well as the vice president of Rainmaker Digital and the guy who runs the Rainmaker FM network. Adam Skolnick is an award-winning journalist, author, and returning guest on this show. His first book One Breath was published by Crown last January and his work has appeared in publications including Playboy, The New York Times, and many others. In part one of this file Robert, Adam, and I discuss how longer works of writing have been forced to compete with disposable culture, why Herman Melville died penniless, how the novel has stood the test of time, the role of podcasting for modern writers, and author Hugh Howey’s Rock, Paper, Scissors model of book retail.

And we are rolling today with some very special guests. I have more than one guest today, which is unusual for this show, but I think what we have is a special edition of The Writer Files. We usually call these Writer Porn when I get return guests, but I do have a new guest, Robert Bruce is joining us today. Welcome, Robert. Robert Bruce: Hey, Kelton, thanks for having me. Kelton Reid: If you don’t know Robert and his famous voice, he actually runs Rainmaker FM, and by night he files stories to the internet from an undisclosed location near you. Does that mean you’re actually writing stuff somewhere here in my neighborhood, Robert? Robert Bruce: It could be. It could mean that, Kelton. Kelton Reid: You’re very mysterious. Robert Bruce: The fact that you don’t know makes it so much better. Kelton Reid: We can find your writing and more of your very, very interesting voice over at RobertBruce.com. Robert is a poet, fictionist, copywriter, and a VP of Rainmaker Digital and a close confidant who has nurtured The Writer Files kind of since it’s inception, so welcome to the show. Robert Bruce: Thanks, man. Kelton Reid: And Adam Skolnick is back. The award-winning journalist, author, swimmer, I call him a backgammon hound. He’s actually a shark, so don’t play him for money, but he recently walked the marathon length of Sunset Boulevard for a story, is that right? Adam Skolnick: Yes. Kelton Reid: Tell us a little bit about that adventure. Robert Bruce: Where is that story, by the way? Where can we find that? Adam Skolnick: That story is still in mid-birth. I should be writing it instead of talking to you jokers right now. Kelton Reid: Sorry. Robert Bruce: Watch it, man, I might be in an undisclosed location near you. Kelton Reid: Robert’s also in L.A. Adam Skolnick: Oh nice, good, you could be in my house right now. Robert Bruce: Hey, you never know. Adam Skolnick: No, it’s going to be for Lonely Planet Traveller Magazine which is obviously a big travel guide publishing brand and they’ve got kind of a big magazine in the UK and it’s growing here in the US, and so it will be for both of those editions. I walked Sunset from Union Station in downtown L.A. to the beach seventeen years ago with a friend, right when I was first trying to become a writer. It was the first thing I did. It was the first story I wrote. Before that, I was kind of just like hiding in dark corners and scribbling down like stream of consciousness rants and occasionally foist them on unsuspecting people at open mic nights. Mostly it was kind of keeping it to myself. Then I started to really take it seriously, trying to write stories and travel stories in particular. A friend of mine said he was going to walk Wilshire, Santa Monica, and Sunset Boulevards from beginning to end and asked me if I was interested and so I tagged along. Then fast forward to a couple of weeks ago and an editor from the magazine said that they had a photographer on location, shooting Sunset for a feature, and they wondered if I wanted to write the text. And I told them what I did seventeen years ago and how I was thinking about doing it again, because so much has changed here in L.A., especially on the eastern stretch of that street. They went for it and that meant that I had the death march ahead of me and it was cool. It was fun to do it again, this time, I did it with a filmmaker named Tchaiko Omawale, a friend of mine, and she was with me for the first twenty miles and the last six miles I was trudging alone. Robert Bruce: Wow, so it literally is a marathon, yeah? Adam Skolnick: Yeah, yeah. It’s just under twenty-six miles and it was like, yeah, and it rained again. The first time around it rained for like the first few miles, or maybe even the first couple of hours straight, and then it was nice. This time, like out of nowhere it rained when we were in East Hollywood. It was great, you know, it’s always interesting to see things at that level, street level. See how much has changed, how the Sunset strip is kind of decaying while Eastside L.A. is booming and, you know, just to be able to think about all of that, what that means. And it’s just a privilege to be able to do it, and to do this for a living, to write stories. It’s always fun when I find one that I resonate with because that’s why we do this. It certainly is not the paycheck. Kelton Reid: You can see snippets of that story, actually if you pop onto Adam’s Instagram. I think it’s just Adam Skolnick on Instagram. Yeah, I just wanted to mention also that in addition to being a journalist, Adam recently published his first book, One Breath, last January. Published by Crown and he has written for some really big name marquee publications including Playboy, The New York Times and many others. He’s over at AdamSkolnick.com if you want to check out more of his stuff and see some of those great pictures too. How Longer Works of Writing Have Been Forced to Compete with Disposable Culture Kelton Reid: You may be wondering why the three of us are chatting today. As we often do, Robert and I, and Adam and I separately gnash our teeth about certain elements of the writer’s life and I thought I’d bring them on together today to do the Is the novel dead? edition of Writer Porn. To start out I think maybe we could talk about what this question actually means because it’s something that famous writers have written about and kvetched about, you know, throughout the ages. Famous writers, Philip Roth and many others have written some great pieces about it. But I think what we’re going to talk about today is maybe a little bit different as opposed to say like the highbrow, literary version of that argument. We’re going to talk maybe more about, well Robert, do you want to help me out on how we’re going to tackle this one? Robert Bruce: I have no idea how we’re going to tackle this, other than, yeah, I think this is a really interesting question. I think it’s … and it goes into a lot of, maybe a bigger subterranean question of, you know, How do you … what does it mean to get out into the world what you want to get out into the world in 2016 and 2017 rapidly coming up on us? You know, I mean ****, so maybe the novel, we could say, we’re going to talk specifically about the death of the novel, in my opinion. Maybe that, the idea of the novel can be a stand in for, you know, in a lot of ways whatever it is you are doing. Here’s the deal, here’s my short take on it. The novel is so last century, right? This beautiful form, whether literary or even genre pretty much for, I don’t know, at least a hundred years has stood alone as a piece of, to put it crassly, media, that had very few, for many of those hundred years, very few competitors. Now you come into a world where we’re still writing these novels which I think is a good thing and obviously there’s many great novels out there and many great novel readers of novels but all of a sudden it’s competing with, you know, the Kardashian’s, and it’s competing with Hillary’s thirty thousand deleted emails, and it’s competing with Adam Skolnick’s stroll down Sunset Boulevard. Not only that, but the entire history of art and media that is now available to us online, you know, the Beatles entire catalog, so on and so forth. It’s this really, to me, interesting problem that I actually don’t think that there’s an answer to it, but I think there are ways, you know, maybe one of the better questions is, How should a writer be thinking today, in the age of the Kardashians? Kelton Reid: Mm-hmm (affirmative). Yeah, that’s a good point. You know, we kind of open it up. It’s not that kind of bleak … Robert Bruce: Oh, I think it is, Kelton. Kelton Reid: Sure, but when we’re asking the question, Is the novel dead? I think what we’re … you know, defining the novel as a little bit broader piece, you know, a longer fiction, obviously, including popular fiction, right? Literary fiction. Adam Skolnick: That’s what I was wondering if you were talking about the form of what a traditional novel is and like a reinvention of a form, or if you are talking about just the idea of releasing books in general, because you could make that same argument for any book, then. If you are saying that. Robert Bruce: Or any file. Adam Skolnick: I mean from the beginning of … I think there’s always been intense competition for readers, you know. In the days where there wasn’t the internet and social media, or even movies and TV, there were a million newspapers. There was a newspaper for almost every block of every city, so there’s always been kind of this democratized media. We just don’t really see it because we are so focused on, we’re so myopic with the present, nobody can really analyze it against anything else, especially now because everyone is so obsessed. I think social media is probably the greatest threat to people’s attention. I think that the Beatles example is really interesting, obviously, yes you can listen to as much music as you want to, so there’s so much media saturating but I think it’s social media that is a big drain on people’s attention spans. That’s a real issue, but there’s always been that issue and before there was the issue of, Is there enough literate people out there to buy the books? I mean, listen, Herman Melville had to get a job at the customs office after he wrote Moby Dick. Robert Bruce: That’s right, he died broke, penniless. Adam Skolnick: That is a little bit disconcerting. But I don’t think it’s ever been easy to make your living this way, ever. I think that these are interesting questions but I don’t think they prove the death of any form. I just think that it’s up to publishers and authors to figure out their way around it and to make their book relevant. A lot of that’s just like this having gone through the marketing process of a book in January through til, really, all the way almost til June and to see how it’s such a mystery. There’s really no formula that you can follow that will be 100% foolproof. It’s a real mystery and it takes the audience kind of finding the book in an organic way as much as it takes a publishing house putting all their ammo behind something. God, it’s kind of a mind bender, you know, for me, it’s interesting being invited to this. I’ve written a novel that didn’t sell and I wrote a nonfiction book that did sell and so what I do know is that it’s harder to sell fiction. That might be because of the shrinking audience or the competing media. That could have something to do with that. I don’t know for a fact, but that could have something to do with it. Or it could just be that, you know, people, publishers rather, make bets on true stories that they know there’s an audience for. Either way, it’s harder to sell fiction. That’s a fact. But, you know, according to my friends at HarperCollins their fiction sales are up. Hardcover fiction sales are up. Kelton Reid: We will be right back after a very short break.

How the Novel has Stood the Test of Time Robert Bruce: Right, harder to sell, but as you well know, as I think all of us do, and many people listening, it’s like, when fiction hits there’s nothing better, because it’s also then … it’ll last a hundred years, you know, if it’s really great of course. Adam Skolnick: Yeah. Robert Bruce: That’s rare, but we point to … and this whole eBook conversation now with Amazon and all these independent publishers going on and self-publishing and making, you know, you hear these grand stories of these people making all this money. I mean, Kelton, you interviewed Andy Weir and an incredible story of the self-publication of The Martian and then it got picked up and the movie and everybody knows that story. Those, we also know, are the rare stories. I think, what’s his name? Hugh Howey, he talks about he hit with a massive, massive fiction hit. But he makes a really interesting statement that people point to him and say, “Oh yeah, this is the new reality. We can all be like Hugh Howey.” He says, “Of course you can’t, but the thing to remember is, at least in the self-publishing arm of this conversation, is you can make life changing money, which is, to some people $200 a month is going to be life changing.” The Role of Podcasting for Modern Writers Robert Bruce: I mean, back to Harper Collins, I totally agree with you, Adam. I would like to talk for at least a minute about this idea of the form itself and its relevance in the culture. This, to me, is endlessly fascinating. Kelton, you and I talked about, well, it came up originally I think we were talking about Bret Easton Ellis. Here is arguably, of our generation, Bret Easton Ellis is maybe one of the last great novelists, you know, Less Than Zero, American Psycho, Glamorama, on and on. Here is, of the last waning glory days of the twentieth century, he pretty much, along with a smaller group of folks, owned the culture, the literary culture we’ll say. But today he’s running one of the greatest podcasts available on the face of the Earth. Kelton Reid: That’s right. Robert Bruce: He goes from culture shifting novelist to podcaster and interviewing, you know, incredible people in the culture and it’s this natural thing and he’s incredibly compelling. I’m not arguing that this is the way things should be it just it is what it is, right? Kelton Reid: Yeah. Robert Bruce: But here is one of our greats, who is now in this new medium and it’s the same with who you just interviewed … Kelton Reid: Jay McInerney, yeah, another Brat Packer. Robert Bruce: Bright Lights, Big City and now he’s a wine writer which I think is ****ing great and hilarious. I don’t think it’s like a loss, this great loss to art. I think these are two, you know, anecdotal stories. I think it’s interesting that, What does the audience want, right? That whole idea. And what do they want from them? McInerney just wrote another novel. It’ll hopefully do really well for him. But, I mean, he was talking pretty excitedly and I mean he’s interested in what he’s doing now, the podcast and the writing the wine stories. Kelton Reid: For sure. Robert Bruce: Which is, of course, Adam, right up your alley as well with the non-fiction stuff. Adam Skolnick: Mm-hmm (affirmative). Yeah, but there’s still, you know, there’s younger novelists that come out and wow. I don’t know, I mean, I loved Less Than Zero as much as everybody else. I loved Bret Easton Ellis’ work. I don’t consider him the last great novelist, though. I just don’t … I think that we are putting parameters on things that don’t … See, to me, as a writer, it doesn’t help. So I’m just not one of those people that’s over analytical, I think, in general, in terms of the work and how I do it and also where I put it. I’m just not that guy. I think I follow the story. I do the best I can with the story, find a home for the story, and then that’s it. You know, I could probably be more analytical than I am, but I’m just not that person. But at the same time, I think it’s dangerous to put parameters on things that we don’t fully understand. Just because someone’s podcasting now, I mean a lot of publishers are telling authors to podcast because they think, I mean, I get stuff from my publisher all the time saying, How to podcast, or How to sell your book. One way is to start a podcast, which is, you know, funny because it’s not like you can start a podcast and get listeners overnight. But that’s why a lot of people are doing that because they are trying to creatively sell it. That doesn’t mean the novel form itself is dead. It just means now, like everything else, radio is democratized. Now they can just go and get their voice out there, it doesn’t mean they re not writing and if Bret Easton Ellis isn’t writing, I don’t think it’s because he has a podcast. Robert Bruce: Yeah, no, I’d agree with you there. I think we’re, like in the case of Brett Easton Ellis, what’s interesting to me is that he’s not … I don’t know, obviously, I don’t know him. It appears to me that he’s not doing this to sell books or as a request in a marketing business kind of sense. He’s using it as a medium, an artistic medium in and of itself. I think that’s where a lot of people get offended at the idea. I’m not some huge, I mean, I am an advocate for podcasting, but in this case, I’m not like Everybody should have one and it’s this great, and you’re right, it’s just a logical extension from the days of radio. But to me, it’s interesting that, and maybe it’s just because I’m old and you know out of the culture in a lot of ways, it’s interesting that his podcast and certain moments of it, him in that medium, is almost more interesting to me and to many others, than any of his work in novels. I don’t know what that means. I don’t know if that’s good or bad. It’s just a fascinating thing to think about. Kelton Reid: Do you think that’s the Marc Maron effect on podcasting? Just to kind of take a little detour? Robert Bruce: It probably has to be, I mean, and again, there’s nothing new here. It’s just the way we do it and the way it’s distributed, but it probably has to be. We know that however many billions are online and however many more billions in the next ten, twenty years, you know, I don’t know exactly if you are wanting to go somewhere specific with that, but … Kelton Reid: I don’t know, I mean, I think kind of just to compare Marc Maron for instance, who is not a novelist, he was like a washed up comedian who started a podcast interviewing his comedian friends in his garage and then a few years later he’s interviewing President Obama. You know, I don’t know, but I think Bret Easton Ellis may have been kind of on the skids and fearing the death of the novel saw a kind of an example of, as Adam puts it, this democratization of getting your voice out there and he probably kind of resurrected his career, both Maron, and Ellis. Robert Bruce: I think he’s been pretty straightforward in saying that it saved his, you know, career-wise at least, saved him. Adam Skolnick: Wow. I better start listening to it. Kelton Reid: To Maron? Adam Skolnick: No, I listen to Maron every once and awhile. Kelton Reid: Oh, okay. Adam Skolnick: To Ellis. Robert Bruce: Oh no, yeah, I was talking about Maron there, sorry. Adam Skolnick: Oh, you were? Okay, sorry. Kelton Reid: I mean I think both guys are … Robert Bruce: Ellis is definitely worth listening to, for the record, though, Adam. Kelton Reid: I think they are both fascinating characters. They are both like, kind of like the most interesting man in the room wherever they are. To listen to Ellis talk, you know, he is clearly a genius and I think Maron is too, and I think you know having a place to kind of put your energies that isn’t locked into a paper book is probably pretty good for a writer these days. Adam Skolnick: Yeah, I mean, I guess it depends on what you are looking for, you know? What I really liked about your interview with Jay McInerney, Kelton, was this idea of talking about writing into the dark, like you had said, and his idea that you know he doesn’t plan it he just shows up and then sees where it goes. Even, I’m someone that does outline but even when I’m writing something that I’ve outlined there’s moments like that where you kind of connect and it’s starting to make sense and all these ideas that have been rattling around in your head come out. I just don’t know that magic exists in podcast and that magic exists, definitely for a writer, and probably actors on stage as well, those are the kind of those magic moments that people … that’s what hooks us, you know? I think that’s also what comes across in a great novel to a reader and that’s the magic, you know? Everything else, to me, is noise and the rest of it is magic. Can you sell enough to sustain the medium so that, you know, can publishers sell enough to sustain the medium and the machinery so that those magic moments can come through to readers? I hope so, because I think there’s nothing better than quality fiction and even non-fiction and stories like that. As to other writers that are finding success in the podcast arena, I think Malcolm Gladwell’s recent podcast is amazing. I don’t think that mean’s he’s not a writer, he’s not in any way going to give up writing. I don’t see how he would. In fact, his podcast is not an interview podcast. It’s a scripted podcast. So it’s another way for him to write and it’s just as intriguing as his books. Yeah, so I don’t know, I don’t think the emergence of one form necessarily means the demise of the other. I don’t think TV killed radio, I don’t think film killed TV, I don’t think now this rise of kind of new distribution models for TV and movies which is Netflix and other, Amazon, and all these other ways to watch, Hulu, watch media on your computer, I don’t think that is destroying anything. I just see it as shifting and I think it will always be there. Author Hugh Howey s Rock, Paper, Scissors Model of Book Retail Kelton Reid: Absolutely. Okay, well to just kind of throw some fuel on the fire from Publisher’s Weekly, actually via your friend The Passive Voice blog. Robert turned me onto this great blog, Passive Voice. It’s a lawyer? Is that right? Robert Bruce: Yeah, I think he is a practicing attorney, but yeah, I don’t know where he finds the time to post like he does, but yep. Kelton Reid: Yeah, well, he posts a lot about publishing and the publishing industry. Anyway, this morning he posted a piece from Publisher’s Weekly. Just a blurb here, bookstore sales in July fell by under 1% compared to last year so according to preliminary estimates, the US census bureau, the decline marks the first month in 2016 of bookstore sales fell compared with last year. But, this is kind of a weird factoid, the drop reflects the fact July 2016 did not have a strong, as strong a selling title as Go Set a Watchmen which was released last July but as we know is not a book from this century, is it? Adam Skolnick: No, but then why is Amazon setting up showrooms and bookstores if they, you know what I mean, like why are they doing that? They don’t have to do that … Kelton Reid: I’ll tell you why. Adam Skolnick: Why? Kelton Reid: Well, Barnes and Noble is failing and this is something that Hugh Howey talks about. And actually to quickly segue into his Rock, Paper, Scissors theory about kind of the industry, he noted that the big five publishers are declining overall and Barnes and Noble sales are down 6% over the same period last year, also. So they are changing CEOs once again. What he’s saying, in a nutshell, Hugh Howey, on his great blog which you should check out I think he’s calling it Wayfinder … but HughHowey.com. He’s saying that Barnes and Noble will never be able to compete with Amazon on price or selection, right? So basically, Amazon killed Barnes and Noble and that’s why we’re seeing the rise, again, of these indie bookstores, right? Basically, the move of avid readers to digital, you know, less clutter, easier to carry around books like Ulysses, or David Foster Wallace, Infinite Jest, right? He’s saying physical books will never go away just like vinyl records will never go away. But there’s a problem of growth, so there’s not going to be any growth in that industry, is what he’s saying, at least in physical books. He’s saying that the future is going to be a mix of these indie bookshops that kind of keep the culture alive and foster community, and then Amazon. If Amazon wants a piece of that community then they are going to have to emulate the indie bookstore to get a piece of that homegrown feel. Adam Skolnick: Interesting. Kelton Reid: You know, but Barnes and Noble, essentially what he’s saying, is doomed. Thanks so much for tuning into this special edition of The Writer Files.

Imperial Bedrooms (Vintage) The iconic novelist Bret Easton Ellis (American Psycho, Less Than Zero) returns to Skylight Books to read and sign his latest book, Imperial Bedrooms, just out in paperback! “Brutally conceived, and effectively done. . . . There is no doubt that Ellis retains the ability to startle and disquiet.” —The Times Literary Supplement (London) "Enough talk of [Ellis's] literary genius, let's call him what he really is: a terrific horror writer. . . . An absolute creepfest [and] a festival of panting paranoia." --Chicago Sun-Times Bret Easton Ellis is also the author of American Psycho, Glamorama, The Informers, Less Than Zero, Lunar Park, and The Rules of Attraction. His work has been translated into twenty-seven languages. He lives in Los Angeles. THIS EVENT WAS RECORDED LIVE AT SKYLIGHT BOOKS MAY 19, 2011.
Bret Easton Ellis Glamorama (Knopf) Ellis, a godfather to the new fiction scene, describes what it-s like to have one foot in each of two generations. He comes from the minimalists (the Raymond Carver gang), but his recent book, Glamorama, is a step in the new direction--complex, ironic, deconstructive, maximalist.
