It’s time for the 99th Sonitotum with Matthew Wayne Selznick, the podcast about making stuff (mostly writing), finding success as we each define it for ourselves, and staying healthy and sane in the process. Settle in for an in-depth and evergreen conversation with historical and literary fiction author Maureen Morrissey! Maureen Morrissey is a writer for online publications and a published novelist; retired educator; and wife/mother/grandmother/dog mommy. She is an amateur photographer; traveler who loves to wander and wonder; and most recently, half-marathon runner. In her spare time, she attends live theater events and rock concerts, and investigates the integrity of roof top bars in her hometown NYC. Maureen has been a writer for as long as she remembers. She began writing her first novel, Woven: Six Stories, One Epic Journey in the middle of the Covid-19 pandemic, the day after retiring from teaching fourth grade. It was published in November of 2020. She published a second novel, Sonder: Janie's Story in March 2022, and her third, Seeing is Believing in June 2023. She published a short story, “Win, Lose or Draw,” at the beginning of January 2024, and her most recent release is the children’s picture book Country Dog, City Dog. Find Maureen Morrissey at maureenmorrissey.com. The interview portion of this episode was recorded on January 18, 2024. The other bits were recorded on April 10, 2024. This episode took about eight hours fifteen minutes to record, produce, and delivery to you. Links and Topics Mentioned in This Episode My day job? I’m a creative services provider helping authors, podcasters and other creators. How can I help you? The book that drove Maureen to pursue independent publishing was Walter the Farting Dog by the multi-genre, multiple-award-winning author William Kotzwinkle. You know you want to click those links… I mentioned Norman MacLean, author of A River Runs Through It, as an author who wrote a masterwork late in life. Novels told through a linked collection of short stories or novellas are sometimes called composite novels. Examples include The Martian Chronicles by Ray Bradbury, The Joy Luck Club by Amy Tan, and The House on Mango Street by Sandra Cisneros. There are many, many others! Maureen tags the Goosebumps books as an example of a “beach book” for kids. More on Louise Rosenblatt’s transactional theory of reading, which I contrast / supplement with my own position that the reader / author relationship is collaborative. The Dictionary of Obscure Sorrows by John Koenig is a collection of various concepts for which there are only words in languages other than English. The flat earther who believes every person has their own personal sun came up in the conversation as an example of a wonderful and compelling unintentional metaphor. Maureen’s “Judge Not” article. The Cult of Done Manifesto from Bre Pettis and Kio Stark. By the time you’re listening to this episode or reading these show notes, my new novelette “Reggie versus Kaiju Storm Dragon Squidbat” will be available wherever you buy e-books and, of course, directly from my site!

It's Paris's birthday today so Chris gave her the gift of skipping this episode! Instead, Mary Parker is here with Chris to discuss their experience reading this novelization of the popular 80s Spielberg film. Even though this book is supposed to be based on Melissa Mathison's screenplay, Kotzwinkle really took some wild "I'm-a-dude-in-the-80s" liberties with her story. Content Warnings: aliens, government abductions, medical torture, and interspecies MILF longings.

It's our 400th episode! Which, to be honest, we didn't realize when we were recording this, because we're bad at math. But that doesn't make it any less exciting! And we inadvertently planned a pretty special one to mark the milestone: we're joined by Becky Barnard and Dave Housley, Barrelhouse editors and authors of the new YA novel The Greys, to discuss one of the craziest movie novelizations of all time: E.T., The Extraterrestrial, by William Kotzwinkle. It's the adorable little alien character you know and love, except super horny? If you like the show, and would like more of it in your life, we're releasing two bonus episodes a month to our Patreon subscribers, for only $5: https://www.patreon.com/BookFight

Qué… ¿deseosos de terminar el año? ¡Ya queda muy poco! Y menos todavía para esa comilona que os espera junto a los vuestros… Y cómo no, la comida es un tema que no puede faltar en la literatura, de hecho, es un tema más que recurrente, así que, sacamos un último programa del 2019 con el que se os va a hacer la boca agua. Para este programa os recomendamos los siguientes libros: Doctor Rat, de William Kotzwinkle. Carne de chino, de Tali Rosu. Sabor a chocolate, de José Carlos Carmona. La catadora, de Rosella Postorino. Lo podéis escuchar aquí, en iVoox o en Lektu.
El nadador en el mar secreto es un libro sobre el amor, el dolor, la pareja, el duelo, la aceptación y la vida. Sobre la mirada que tenemos sobre los demás. Sobre nuestra capacidad de empatizar con el otro. Un libro para ponerse en el lugar de quien tenemos al lado, para purgar heridas viejas y nuevas, para sentirse acompañado, para conectar con nosotros mismos. Un libro honesto, delicado y sencillo. Su prosa es poesía. Con su escritura, y en solo algunos párrafos, el autor logra transmitir una cantidad de sensaciones y sentimientos, que por momentos resulta apabullante tanta belleza. Año: 1975 Editado en Argentina por China Editora

The past, present and future walk into a bar. Bartender says, "you need a drink. You're tense." Here is a discussion offering some funny books to read. Here also are some satires. Here are some books that are laugh out loud funny and some that might need some historical context to truly get the jokes. Also here, a discussion we just started, really.What is the difference between comedy and satire? Here is a web-based definition I found helpful. http://www.wisegeek.com/what-is-the-difference-between-comedy-and-satire.htm#didyouknowout“Comedy and satire are different in that comedy is a much broader genre. All satire is comedy, but not all comedy is satire. Comedy includes everything from intelligent, witty repartees and dark humor to slapstick and baseline jokes. Satire, on the other hand, is a literary genre primarily focused on highbrow social criticism. “Though even here, the lines sure seem to blur. What is the difference between highbrow and lowbrow these days? Isn’t there lowbrow satire? Southpark comes to mind. The Daily Show is a mix of highbrow and lowbrow that often offers trenchant social criticism. And who is to say what is laugh out loud funny? It’s all so personal.Anyway, here are a few of the books we discussed.Won’t you add to our list of comedy books?Inherent Vice, by Thomas PynchonThe Bear Went Over The Mountain, by William KotzwinkleThe Evolution Man or How I Ate My Father, by Roy LewisBossypants, by Tina FeyThe One Hundred Year Old Many Who Climbed Out The Window and Disappeared, by David LodgeVanity Fair, William Thackeray.Where’d you go Bernadette, Maria SempleCheaper by the Dozen, Frank B.

Here comes Jack Twiller! Plunging into the teenage abyss, always surprising, always surprised--just like a...JACK IN THE BOX One of the Soulless Minions, Josh, goes solo once again for a commentary on the 1990 film Book of Love. The film was adapted from a novel by William Kotzwinkle called Jack in the Box and was directed by Robert Shey--the founder and CEO of New Line Cinema. The book cover describes Jack in the Box as An X-Rated American Graffiti... and I whole heartily agree. It is indeed quite raunchy but with that raunch comes real honesty from the dreams, exploits and the trials and tribulations of our main character--Jack Twiller. Book of Love never got the attention it deserved during it's initial release but now thanks to DVD this film stands today as a real hidden gem and serves as a great and charming portrait of teenage life. Most of the commentary is devoted to comparisons between the book and film, however, I do deliver my fair share of nostalgia, personal insights and admiration.

Steven Spielberg swore he'd never film a follow-up to his most popular and personal work - the 1982 sci-fi fantasy E.T. The Extra-Terrestrial. But in 1985, the director did grant children's author William Kotzwinkle approval to publish an account of what happened to the adorable alien being after he left Elliott on Earth. As a companion to the current NowPlayingPodcast.com special donation podcast, Stuart In LA reviews E.T: THE BOOK OF THE GREEN PLANET and takes in the wonders of a never-before-depicted home world. Will Stuart be over the moon about getting a second adventure with his childhood idol, or does a failure to "be good" earn the sequel a glowing middle finger? Listen and find out!
