I'm so excited about this special episode of Rock is Lit. It's a first for the podcast, actually: a panel discussion, with four amazing women rock novelists, hailing from Canada to Chicago to LA and back to my neck of the woods here in Asheville, NC.  Kirsti MacKenzie, Mallory Smart, Claire Hopple, and Rock is Lit veteran Jessamyn Violet are joining me to talk about our experiences and thoughts about writing fiction about musicians. Jessamyn Violet is a writer and musician out of Venice Beach, CA. Her debut novel, ‘Secret Rules to Being a Rockstar', was published in April 2023 by Three Rooms Press. Short fiction can be found in ‘Ploughshares', ‘Lit Angeles', ‘805 Art + Lit Journal', and more. She is also the drummer for the psych rock band Movie Club.  Mallory Smart is a Chicago-based writer and Editor-in-Chief of Maudlin House. Some people even call her ‘The Only Living Girl in Chicago'. Mallory is the host of the podcast Textual Healing, where she dives into the fusion of literature and music, and co-hosts That Horrorcast with Dmitry Samarov where they get lost in the weird world of horror films. Her latest book, ‘I Keep My Visions To Myself', just came out from With an X Books.    Kirsti MacKenzie is the author of ‘Better to Beg', as well as editor in chief of ‘Major 7th Magazine'. Her work has been published in ‘HAD', ‘Rejection Letters', ‘trampset', ‘Autofocus', ‘Maudlin House', ‘Identity Theory', and elsewhere.   Claire Hopple is the author of six books and the fiction editor at XRAY. Her stories have appeared in ‘Wigleaf', ‘Vol. 1 Brooklyn', ‘Forever Mag', and others. She grew up in the woods of Pennsylvania and currently lives in Asheville, NC. Her next book, ‘Take it Personally', is forthcoming from Stalking Horse Press in February 2025.    Each of these four talented authors brings a unique perspective to the conversation. From the creative sparks that ignite our own work to the cultural impacts of rock novels in general, we'll navigate the winding paths of character development and uncovering the challenges of breathing life into fictional musicians while honoring the essence of their real-life counterparts. We'll delve into the stigmas surrounding rock novels, dissecting perceptions and stereotypes to reveal the nuanced portrayals crafted by these talented authors. And of course, no discussion on writing fiction about musicians would be complete without reflecting on current trends and the evolution of the genre, including the explosive success of Taylor Jenkins Reid's rock novel ‘Daisy Jones & The Six'. So, tune in and turn up the volume as Rock is Lit takes you on a journey through the pages of rock literature, where every word is a chord and every story a kickass concert.

And of course, no discussion on writing fiction about musicians would be complete without reflecting on current trends and the evolution of the genre, including the explosive success of Taylor Jenkins Reid's rock novel ‘Daisy Jones & The Six'. So, tune in and turn up the volume as Rock is Lit takes you on a journey through the pages of rock literature, where every word is a chord and every story a kickass concert.

The Action Pack may be kings of talking-media-all nowadays but when this show first began it had a pretty singular focus: Marvel Comics and, more specifically, X-Men. Over the years, the crew expanded ranks and coverage, and even added sub-series like the deep-dive into MC2 that became all-things Spider-Girl / Spider-Verse / The Totemic Symbology Of All Fiction. Comics will always be a home for the X-Pack, and we're thrilled to come back to it with a look at Marvel's complete MU-related releases from March through June plus a two-month gaze into the future. Check out the Spider-Verse, from ASM's shocking character death to the return of Spider-Man India and the double symbiote summer crossover; tour into the X-Books, where the Fisks are making themselves at home and 7 new titles kick off, including Realm of X and Children of the Vault; spin through the Avengers World, where old is new as Cap hits #750 then does a Finale, and the Uncanny Avengers Return just as Thor, Black Panther, and Hulk all relaunch within 4 months; and say goodbye to the Hand epic as we know it with Daredevil & Punisher wrapping up runs -- plus Miracleman, Marvel Age, Ultimate Invasion, and much more! It's all this and more on an all new X Is For Podcast -- we hope you survive the experience!
