Today I am chatting with New York Times Bestselling author Susan Dennard! Susan is the author of the Witchlands series as well as The Luminaries series. Today,  Susan and I are chatting about book two in her Luminaries series, The Hunting Moon. Take a listen as Susan and I chat about Susan's writing process, world-building, character development, and all the Nightmares who live in Hemlock Falls...The entire episode is spoiler-free!A little about The Hunting Moon...Winnie Wednesday has gotten everything she thought she wanted. She passed the deadly hunter trials, her family has been welcomed back into the Luminaries, and overnight, she has become a local celebrity.The Girl Who Jumped. The Girl Who Got Bitten.Unfortunately, it all feels wrong. For one, nobody will believe her about the new nightmare called the Whisperer that's killing hunters each night. Everyone blames the werewolf, even though Winnie is certain the wolf is innocent.On top of that, following her dad's convoluted clues about the Dianas, their magic, and what happened in Hemlock Falls four years ago is leaving her with more questions than answers.Then to complicate it all, there is still only one person who can help her: Jay Friday, the boy with plenty of problems all his own.As bodies and secrets pile up around town, Winnie finds herself questioning what it means to be a true Wednesday and a true Luminary―and also where her fierce-hearted loyalties might ultimately have to lie.A special thank you to Susan Dennard for chatting with me today!

“Not all monsters can be slain, and not all nightmares are confined to the dark.” Today Bethann and Samantha review a very Wednesday Adams feeling contemporary fantasy, The Luminaries by Susan Dennard. This novel is all about nightmares and the people who kill them before they kill you. Join in the discussion to hear their thoughts and the anticipation of the second book in this duology.

Join me and my friend Victoria as we dive into The Luminaries, by Susan Dennard.

Take a listen as Victoria and I talk all about it. You'll also hear why the teacher side of me really appreciated one particular line in the book. In addition, you'll learn about the incredible way the story for The Luminaries evolved. First 15 minutes are spoiler free!A little about The Luminaries: Hemlock Falls isn't like other towns. You won't find it on a map, your phone won't work here, and the forest outside town might just kill you.Winnie Wednesday wants nothing more than to join the Luminaries, the ancient order that protects Winnie's town―and the rest of humanity―from the monsters and nightmares that rise in the forest of Hemlock Falls every night.Ever since her father was exposed as a witch and a traitor, Winnie and her family have been shunned. But on her sixteenth birthday, she can take the deadly Luminary hunter trials and prove herself true and loyal―and restore her family's good name. Or die trying.But in order to survive, Winnie enlists the help of the one person who can help her train: Jay Friday, resident bad boy and Winnie's ex-best friend. While Jay might be the most promising new hunter in Hemlock Falls, he also seems to know more about the nightmares of the forest than he should. Together, he and Winnie will discover a danger lurking in the forest no one in Hemlock Falls is prepared for.Not all monsters can be slain, and not all nightmares are confined to the dark. A special thank you to Tor Teen for sending me an ARC, a finished hardcover copy, and laminated pin!

Welcome to Encore on Binge Reading, the show where we invite back authors who've already been on The Joys of Binge Reading to talk about their latest book. Hi there. I'm your host, Jenny Wheeler, and today on the show we have Canadian romcom author Roselle Lim. talking about her latest magical story of love, Sophie Go's Lonely Hear4ts Club. Links to books mentioned in the show: Roselle's first Joys of Binge Reading episode - one of the "Best of 2021" listen to roselle lim's first show Books recommended by Roselle: For Twice In My Life by Annette Christie https://www.amazon.com/For-Twice-in-My-Life/dp/B0B836CMVK/ The Luminaries by Susan Dennard:  https://www.amazon.com/Luminaries-Susan-Dennard/dp/1250194040 Where to find Roselle on line: Website: Rosellelim.com Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/rosellewriter/ Twitter: @RoselleLimwriter Goodreads: https://www.goodreads.com/en/book/show/54019924 But before we get to Roselle, as usual, we've got a giveaway for our listeners, 10 free copies this week of Sadie's Vow, the first book in my new Home At Last series. I love Sadie as a character for her staunch loyalty to her dying mother's wishes.... even when it seems to be working against her self interest... get sadie's vow And don't forget. If you like what you hear, leave your comments wherever you listen to your audio so others can hear about us too. Introducing romcom author Roselle Lim But now here's Roselle. Romcom author Roselle Lim Jenny Wheeler: So welcome to the show, Roselle. It's wonderful to have you back with us. You were last on Binge Reading in February, 2021, with a fabulous romcom called Vanessa Lu's Magical Paris Tea Shop. It featured in the Best of the 2021 books for the year and that was terrific. That was only your second novel, so it wasn't as if you had a great series behind you. Now this new book is Sophie Go's Lonely Hearts Club, and it continues that romcom theme of Canadian Chinese girl finding her way in life and getting herself established. Sophie is a newly minted professional matchmaker with a rather overpowering mom. It's located in Toronto, and I wondered what was the biggest challenge for you in writing the story? Roselle Lim: The biggest challenge for me? Well, first of all, the book is a retelling, a loose retelling, of the Snow White fairy tale. So in the fairy tale you do have that evil stepmother, right? And in this one for me it is portraying to me a realistic version of what it is like when you are suffering from emotional abuse from a parent, or this case both parents. A picture of family emotional abuse Jenny Wheeler: Yes, because the father in the story is very much overpowered by the mother. He is more interested in placating his wife than in looking after his daughter's interests, isn't he? Roselle Lim: Yes, he's very much the enabler, a common formula or a dynamic when that kind of abuse happens in the family. Jenny Wheeler: Interesting that you drew on the fairy tale aspect, because your work is often referred to as magical realism. How close do you think you are to that description of magical realism? Roselle Lim: I wanted to imbue magic as an ordinary magic into this and in Sophie in particular. It's about the red threads and being able to see them and how they link people together. This is how soulmates are viewed by Sophie and by the reader. I like having the subtle magic in there. And I think for magical realism, there is a cultural cornerstone to it. I believe I've established that. with my Chinese culture as the back. Jenny Wheeler: Yes, she's desperate to prove herself and earn a living as a matchmaker so she doesn't have to return to living with her parents. In desperation she takes on a group of elderly gents as possible candidates for matchmaking because she just wants to develop a back list of people who've used her services and can give her a good report. ...

Marissa chats with Susan Dennard about her new urban fantasy - THE LUMINARIES - as well as enlisting the power of word-of-mouth to build hype around your novel, and create an amazing community in the process; using science and evolution to develop realistically horrific fantasy monsters; how "The Luminaries" began life as a reader-directed story on Twitter, and the challenges that come with writing via "hive mind"; how conflicted emotions in your protagonist can lead to a more interesting character arc, especially over the course of a series; the good that can come from allowing yourself to be vulnerable on social media; and the importance of taking breaks when you need them, putting yourself before your writing, and knowing that missing a deadline is not the end of the world (truly!). Books discussed in this episode can be purchased from your local independent bookstore or buy them online from the Happy Writer bookshop.org store (that benefits indie bookstores) at https://bookshop.org/shop/marissameyer Find out more and follow The Happy Writer on social media: https://www.marissameyer.com/podcast/

Por fin os traemos un programa que llega tarde, pero que seguramente compense con lo jugoso que ha quedado. Este cuarto programa cuenta con Dani, Marina, Harold y Jenny, y entre los jardines en los que nos vamos metiendo, nos quedaremos varados en una isla desierta con William Golding ("El señor de las moscas", leído en nuestro club de lectura), nos iremos de borrachera con Charles Bukowski ("Shakespeare nunca lo hizo"), tendremos postboda con el Batman de Tom King ("Días fríos"), volveremos a la fantasía juvenil de la mano de Marina y Susan Dennard ("La bruja de la verdad"), nos tomaremos algún que otro tripi con Jodorowsky y Moebius ("El Incal"), intentaremos sobrevivir en el mundo sin gravedad de Joe Henderson y Lee Garbett ("Skyward"), viviremos los dramas de una adolescente japonesa con Hinako Ashihara ("Reloj de arena") y finalizaremos con más drama todavía, pero esta vez por parte de los ancianos que nos presenta Paco Roca ("Arrugas"). Todo esto salpicado de rencillas dentro de la familia de Segundo Desayuno, un gato que sólo quiere ver el mundo arder, "unpopular opinions" y bastante riesgo a ser cancelados definitivamente. ¿Es suficiente "clickbait" para acompañarnos? Os dejamos también con la cuenta de instagram del club de lectura: https://www.instagram.com/clublecturasd También podéis vernos en youtube: https://youtu.be/d1PXaUAKh8s Una vez más, recordad que nos podéis seguir en redes sociales como @segundodesayuno.

Welcome to Working Title, a podcast where two writer friends stumble through books we love, looking for writing secrets. This week, we are joined by Vendi of @CaughtBetweenPages and @VendiWrites! We discuss the trials and tribulations of epic fantasy scope, seeing our own writing struggles in others' work, and learning from fellow readers with very different opinions. Content Warning: Windwitch contains transphobic treatment of a young trans character, which we discuss in detail in this episode. The discussion begins at 1:03:57 and ends at 1:21:40.

What draws scientists to bookselling? How do you finish writing things that you start on the Internet? And is Zutara the perfect ship? (Spoiler: yes. Oh, Zuko, you good good lad.) In this week's Misshelved, listen in as Copper Dog Books social media coordinator Jess Holleran talks to Witchlands author Susan Dennard about all things science, writing, and bookselling.

First Draft Episode #215: Leigh Barudgo Leigh Barudgo, #1 New York Times bestselling author of the Shadow and Bone series, the Six of Crows duology, and the King of Scars duology, discusses her first adult novel, Ninth House. This episode was brought to you by Freedom — upgrade to Premium and use code FIRSTDRAFT for 40% off a yearly or Forever plan! LINKS AND TOPICS MENTIONED IN THIS EPISODE Please check out Leigh’s two previous First Draft interviews, here and here! The Grishaverse has been developed by Netflix as a TV show Brandon Sanderson is the author of the Mistborn series, the Stormlight Archive series, and the Elantris series, and Leigh notes that he writes one million books and sees way, way far ahead as a writer NPR’s laudatory review for King of Scars had to include a lot of backstory, since technically it’s the sixth book in the Grishaverse Leigh could not wait for a friend to catch up on the past seasons of Stranger Things before watching the third season (unlike with Game of Thrones where she gave him time to catch up) Leigh loves how The Legend of Korra expanded on the universe established in Avatar: The Last Airbender (speaking of Avatar, have you listened to the First Draft interview with Michael Dante DiMartino, co-creator of the Avatar universe??) I risk a spoiler by mentioning the end of Laini Taylor’s Strange the Dreamer series… Curious readers should definitely pick up Daughter of Smoke and Bone and read Laini’s fantasy books all through - and listen to her First Draft interview here! When I was fortunate enough to moderate a panel on worldbuilding at BookCon, NK Jemisin—New York Times bestselling author of the Broken Earth trilogy and The Hundred Thousand Kingdoms series—brought up the Arthur C. Clarke’s third law, “Any sufficiently advanced technology is indistinguishable from magic.” Leigh hopes to avoid the George R. R. Martin scenario — referencing the fact that the Game of Thrones TV show caught up, and then surpassed, Martin’s pace of writing A Song of Ice and Fire, the series the show is based on Leigh’s editor for Ninth House is Noah Eaker, editorial director at Random House. The Princess Bride by William Goldman (also a prolific screenwriter of movies like Butch Cassidy and the Sundance Kid and All the President’s Men) was entirely about digressions, and that is what made it so perfect. Jodie Foster and Anderson Cooper were both in Manuscript senior society Leigh points writers to Robin LaFevers’ Instagram account (and listen to her First Draft interview) and Susan Dennard’s newsletter, Misfits and Dreamers (and listen to her First Draft interview) for amazing craft advice Authors like Kelly Link, Lev Grossman, Joe Hill, and Stephen King (!!!), and Charlaine Harris have given Ninth House props.

Do you ever feel like you're in a reading slump? It's the sort of terrible feeling where you want to read books but it feels like homework or doing chores. It sucks and we suspect it's something a lot of people in the YA community feel from time to time -- we know we do! So what causes reader burnout and how do we combat it? We dive into that discussion in this month's episode of Bookmarked. We've also got some big news developments to cover, including some not-so-great Fantastic Beasts 3 news and some exciting updates in the world of book-to-film adaptations! Want to join the Bookstacked Team? We’re looking for new voices to contribute to our website. We have openings in news, feature articles and book reviews. Click here for more details. In this episode... Angie Thomas's new book. On the Come Up, is out! Michael's reading it and shares his thoughts. We discuss Reading/Book burnout in this episode and how we've all felt it. Does Goodreads actually make it worse? Michael has a Goodreads Challenge hack that might help with reader burnout. Is part of the problem that YA repeats itself too much? So, what's the solution to book burnout? Michael gives us his quick take on 'Fantastic Beasts: The Crimes of Grindelwald'. Production on Fantastic Beasts 3 has been delayed. Is this a troubling sign for Potterheads? Netflix bought Grishaverse... We're getting new books from Marie Lu and Veronica Roth! YallWest and BookExpo are coming up and we are SO EXCITED.

We start off with a debate on whether or not "y'all" should be used by everyone. Spoiler alert: It should. Susan Dennard gives us her elevator pitch for the Witchlands series. We find out where the idea for the series came from and what a typical writing day looks like for Susan. Susan shares her writing process and what the publication process is like for her. We chat about what it was like to go back to the beginning with Sightwitch and Susan shares some fun secrets. Susan tells us her favorite part about writing in the YA Fantasy genre--and the most difficult parts. We find out if there were any scenes cut in Sightwitch and who she would introduce her characters to if she could introduce them to any other author's characters. Susan tells us two truths and a lie about herself, and we have to guess which is the lie. We're still losers.
