Topping Soiled Doves: Prostitution in the the Early West by Anne Seagraves Frog Music by Emma Donoghue Erick's Reading:  The Most Expensive Mistress in Jefferson County by James Misko Show Notes:   Backlist are books previously published, still in print, for at least a year. Helps with discoverability. Not running on new releases all the time, but backlist props that all up. Promote backlist books when not publishing. Keeps people interested while they are waiting for the next book. Keeps those titles alive, so when talking to fans about the books, you still know the sizzle of those books. In it for the long haul; tap into the love of the backlist.   In book launch mode: use amazon free days for promo Book 1 and 2 before 3 comes out. To move them into the series after reading free book 0. Talk about elements of older books (if you liked those, you'll love the new book). Use backlist as a conversation starter. Even with stand alone. If you liked xx, I've also written yyy. Use old books to talk about the new books.   Opportunity to develop new story elements (looking at older books to see what else you can explore).   Fan service. Expanding on backlist. Going wider as well as longer. Instead of marketing with ads, fan service to grow your audience. All books equally important, no barrier to purchase. Finding fans, less about marketing to the world and more marketing to your tribe.   Manufacture your own promo and free days, if you are wide.   Audiobooks, Large Print edition, Workbook ... incrementally or all at once.   It's your process. Own it. Use it the way makes sense

Naoise Dolan, author of the acclaimed debut novel, Exciting Times, joins Declan Meade in studio to read and discuss the subtle gothic horror of Emma Donoghue's 'Looking for Petronilla', a story that appeared way back in Issue 11 of the magazine in Winter 2001. Naoise Dolan was born in Dublin, studied at Trinity College, and completed a master's degree in Victorian literature at Oxford. Her writing has featured in The Dublin Review and The Stinging Fly. Her debut novel Exciting Times has been described by Hilary Mantel as “droll, shrewd and unafraid” – it is published this month by Weidenfeld & Nicolson in the UK, and in June by Ecco in the US. Emma Donoghue is an Irish-Canadian playwright, literary historian, novelist, and screenwriter. Her 2010 novel Room was an international best-seller, and a finalist for the Man Booker Prize – the movie adaptation of the book was nominated for four Academy Awards, including Best Picture. Donoghue's 1995 novel Hood won the Stonewall Book Award, and her novel Slammerkin won the Ferro-Grumley Award for Lesbian Fiction. Her latest novel, Akin, was published last year. The Stinging Fly Podcast invites Irish writers to choose a story from the Stinging Fly archive to read and discuss. Previous episodes of the podcast can be found here. The podcast's theme music is ‘Sale of Lakes', by Divan. All of the Stinging Fly archive is available for subscribers to read – subscribe now and access 20 years of the best new writing.

On this episode we review 2017, a year punctuated with the bad, the ugly & the awkward. From Trump and #MeToo to the Phoenix pay system catastrophe and no more Sears holiday catalogues, we talk about key moments in politics and science, showing how 2017 was another year with far reaching impacts for all of us. 2017 was also Canada’s 150th birthday. As Canadians, we think back on what that meant to us and provide some advice for those of you looking to build a $4.3M outdoor hockey rink. 2017 also brought two births: Matt’s baby girl, Violet and, this podcast! In what will become a yearly tradition, we close the episode by talking about all our 2017 podcast appearances, the interviews we did throughout the year, and the great folks we had the chance to meet. Here’s to a wonderful 2018. Happy New Year everyone. Be kind.
