Welcome back to the UNTOLD LEGENDS podcast hosted by Natalie C. Parker & Zoraida Córdova. We've had a little bit of a rebrand, so if you remember VAMPIRES NEVER GET OLD, we are still the same editors and writers, we've just expanded. Natalie and Zoraida are welcoming in the new year by chatting with Maggie Tokuda-Hall and Preeti Chhibber! This episode navigates honesty in storytelling, figuring out who the real monsters are, and how different iterations of Peter Pan—specifically the enchanting and sometimes terrifying mermaids from the tale—inspired their stories. Maggie Tokuda-Hall is the author of Also an Octopus, illustrated by Benji Davies, The Mermaid, The Witch and The Sea, Squad, illustrated by Lisa Sterle, and Love in the Library illustrated by Yas Imamura with more books forthcoming. She can be found on Twitter @emteehall. Called “Spider-Man super fan and author” by Publishers Weekly, Preeti Chhibber is a YA author, speaker, and freelance writer. She has written for SYFY, Polygon, BookRiot, BookRiot Comics, The Nerds of Color, and The Mary Sue, among others. She also co-hosts the podcasts Desi Geek Girls and Tar Valon or Bust. She's appeared on several panels at New York Comic Con and San Diego Comic Con, and on-screen on the SYFY Network. Honestly, you probably recognize her from one of several BuzzFeed “look at these tweets” Twitter lists. She usually spends her time reading a ridiculous amount of Young Adult but is also ready to jump into most fandoms at a moment's notice. She can be found on Instagram @runwithskizzers. Additional media mentioned: The Abyss (1989), Peter Pan (1953), Peter Pan (2023), Peter Pan by J.M. Barrie, The Little Mermaid (1989), Jennifer's Body (2009), and Cinderella Ate My Daughter by Peggy Orenstein. Follow Zoraida Córdova @zoraidasolo and Natalie C. Parker @ncparker on Instagram.
Welcome back to the UNTOLD LEGENDS podcast hosted by Natalie C. Parker & Zoraida Córdova. We've had a little bit of a rebrand, so if you remember VAMPIRES NEVER GET OLD, we are still the same editors and writers, we've just expanded. Join our dynamic duo as they're joined this time by the wonderful Darcie Little Badger. Together they discuss some fun (and deadly) marine facts along with what inspired her story in the anthology from the perspective of a horror and fantasy lover. Darcie Little Badger is a Lipan Apache writer with a Ph.D. in oceanography. Her critically acclaimed debut novel, Elatsoe, was featured in Time Magazine as one of the best 100 fantasy books of all time. Elatsoe also won the Locus award for Best First Novel and is a Nebula, Ignyte, and Lodestar finalist. Her second fantasy novel, A Snake Falls to Earth, received a Nebula Award, an Ignyte Award, and a Newbery Honor and is on the National Book Awards longlist. Darcie is married to a veterinarian named Taran. She can be found on Instagram @dr.littlebadger. We also found Darcie's magical octopus! The Octopus Squid has bioluminescent arms and can drop one as a distraction as it escapes predators. Check out the Monterey Bay Aquarium website for more on this critter. Additional media mentioned: Creature from the Black Lagoon (1954), The Lighthouse (2019), Dagon (2001), The Shape of Water (2017), and Love, Death + Robots "Jibaro" (2022).

In this LIVE episode of Fictional Hangover, Amanda and Claire, in the same room at the same time for the first time ever, talk about the short story Vampires Never Say Die by Zoraida Córdova and Natalie C. Parker.
The most important moment in your story is the moment when your protagonist is faced with a decision.Do this or do that? Stay or go? Speak or remain silent? Flee or fight?In fact, your protagonist will face dozens of decisions throughout your novel. They'll face at least one in every scene: moments where they experience a crisis, when whatever happens next hinges on the decision they make.But how long should this moment take? Does your protagonist need to waffle between two options for several pages in every scene? Do they even need to know the full weight of what they're deciding?In this episode, I'm sharing the art and science of the perfect crisis. You'll learn:When to write a very long crisis and make your character's decision-making process very clearHow to write a short and snappy crisis your reader might not even notice (but YOU know it's there!)Why there MUST be consequences for your character's choiceHow to include a crisis in every scene WITHOUT making your character annoyingly indecisiveHow to create far-reaching consequences of the crisis choice—even if your character can't predict them in the momentAnd more!Plus, I'll break down the opening scenes of two novels with very different crises.You'll see how Natalie C. Parker writes a five-page-long crisis in Seafire—and why it works.And you'll see how Naomi Novik writes a crisis so short you could blink and you'd miss it in Spinning Silver. Yet the choice the protagonist makes sparks the conflict of the whole book.A well-written crisis can be the absolute best moment in a scene. Find out how to master the crisis in this episode!This episode was inspired by a listener question from David. Thanks, David!Have an editing question you'd like answered?

Dark and Shallow Lies By Ginny Myers Sain | Book Review Podcast Website: https://gobookmart.com Buy Now: https://amzn.to/3G2iZDp * “Dreamy prose conjures a mythical Southern Gothic atmosphere, mixing violence with a Byronic characterization of Elora's stepbrother Hart. Taut pacing builds sustained terror on the page with each successive suspect in this formidable debut.” —Publishers Weekly, starred review “Murky waters, hidden gators, and nasty cottonmouths match the setting to its darkly unsettling story….Fans of Brenna Yovanoff's Fiendish or Natalie C. Parker's Beware the Wild will find this atmospheric thriller deeply satisfying.” –BCCB "A darkly atmospheric mystery set in the bayous of Louisiana."— School Library Journal “Haunting and arresting, this is one stunning debut.

Book Vs Movie (Replay) “Love, Simon” The 2015 novel Vs the 2018 movie The Margos are back in high school with this super-charming story of a teenager, Simon Spier, who is hiding a big secret from his friends and family. Well, except for one person whom he emails daily but has no idea who he is as they use fake names to communicate. You see, Simon (who identifies as “Jacques” in his emails with “Blue”) is gay and struggling with his growing sexual interest. Simon is loved by his parents and friends and feels mostly safe in his Atlanta-adjacent home but he still worries about being bullied in high school by not well-meaning jocks and bullies. Plus, he worries about disappointing his parents (though they come across as being very open-minded in both the novel and film.) In fact, everything seems to be going well for Simon until fellow student Martin finds out his secret and blackmails him into setting him up with Abby (who is the first person Simon comes out to and that causes a problem with his best friend Leah. Lots of “friend” drama here!) The book (titled Simon Vs the Homo Sapiens Agenda) debuted in 2015 by first-time novelist Becky Albertalli who spent years working as a clinical psychologist working mainly with teenagers. It was a big hit upon its release and was soon sold to be adapted into the film. In this show, we discuss the differences between book and movie, and there are several to dive into here. Which version did the Margos like better? Check out the link below to find out! We are sponsored by Penguin Books in this ep! Natalie C. Parker, author of the Beware the Wild duology offers her own feminist take on an adventure with Seafire, which follows Caledonia Styx, the captain of an all-female ship, on her quest to save her brother and take down a vicious warlord’s powerful fleet. This is the first book in a trilogy about Caledonia whose family was killed by warlord Aric Athair and his bloodthirsty army of Bullets. She captains the ship Mors Navis with a crew of women and girls like her who lost their homes and families because of Aric and his men. Parker is a lifelong fan of SciFi but has always felt a frustration with the lack of strong female characters in her favorite books. In fact, Natalie remembers telling her mother at a young age that In regards The Hobbit, “MOM, do you know how many girls are in this book? ONE. And she was a spider.” This book is thrilling, makes for an excellent gift and will be on sale 50% off the weekend between Friday, November 22nd and Sunday, November 24th at all Barnes & Nobles locations throughout the U.S.! In this ep the Margos discuss : The story behind author Becky Albertalli’s career in psychology and how it influences her writing The major differences between the book and the Greg Berlantani movie How the subject of “coming out” is handled between both The casting of the movie including Nick Robinson (Simon,) Jennifer Garner (Emily,) Josh Duhamel (Jack,) Katherine Langford (Leah,) Logan Miller (Martin,) Alexandra Shipp (Abby,) Keiynan Lonsdale (Bram,) Tony Hale (Mr. Worth,) and Natasha Rothwell (Ms. Albright) Clips used: Love, Simon trailer Montage of kids coming out as “straight” to their parents Simon coming out to his parents Simon’s mother tells him to “exhale” Ms. Albright calls out the homophobic kids Outro Music: Waterloo Sunset by The Kinks Book Vs.
